On Geany 1.38 when editing `.sh` or `.conf` files three additional `0x00` characters are added.
On execute, script returns ` cannot execute binary file: Exec format error`.
Hexdump
for
```
#!/bin/bash
if [ $user
```
File type is set to `Shell script`. I tried UTF-7, UTF-8 encoding and none.

I was just using geany today (mainly for compiling; for editing, 'was using Kate just for taking benefit of clangd LSP) and
- pressed `Ctrl - /` by mistake. and huh... word navigation back.
- what next i wondered, `Ctrl - \` next word nice
- `Ctrl - ]` and `Ctrl - [` for what? para-wise (i.e. broken at empty line) navigation i guess 🤔 ?
- `Ctrl - b` for start/end of parenthesis?
woww! i only knew of `ctrl - arrow` keys lol. how many more navigation shortcuts do geany have - any cheatsheet?
just early today i browser the editor color scheme themes (<tt>***V***iew > Change ***C***olor Scheme</tt>, not UI themes) - and woww, geany has some of best dark themes out of the box in my opinion. I picked the following ones:
```
oblivion 2 (my current), sleepy pastel, zenburn,
bespin, kugel
```
I already admired geany from long ago due to its amazzzing adherence to _KIS_ principle
- it's preferences are always sooo simple despite providing options for sooo many things (even for which explorer to choose).
- It's build & run menus put even vscode to shame: it's flexible, versatile, and _just works_ - and never made me feel the lack of terminal (i am on windows)
- It's message window is sooo thoughtful - the scribble pad, and messages wow, no other editors has that.
- its default UI theme is sooooo pleasant to eyes and mind - despite being light mode, it's balanced, it's colorful; not the dull boring BLINDING white every-modern-where else.
i have used lots of other editors (notepad++, vs codium, kate, notepad3) - but there's something in geany which always i find myself to be lacking in other editors. It gives _Freedom_ (which corporate produce, despite being OSS, just can't give), _balance_ (which so much offerings lack), and _ingenuity_ through simple things.
and all that too in just 27 MB (for Geany 1.38) (Kate: 67 MB, VSCodium: 80-95 MB)
There are some missing things in geany too - pro'lly biggest of 'em being lack of LSP support. Other one being this issue: https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/3319 - Rest is all bearable.
And a small nitpick i have (i am not saying to change it, just bringing in notice): a jin, or geany is not considered something good in this side of the world, i don't want any ghost or spirit with me. so, i _wish_ there could have been a better name. But it's ohkay.
Thanks a lot for providing such a simple yet super customisable, perfect BALANCE of the things editor. Lots of love.

### percieved working
* open the file plugin in the sidebar
* single click a file - it opens in an editor tab (say preview mode tab) in the read only mode (with some indication - say, the name in the tab bar in italics)
* single click another file - it opens in the existing preview mode tab, and similar manner
* repeat with as many files as you want
* double click on any preview mode tab to convert it to normal tab
### what does it address
* currently rapidly previewing files in a directory/project to get a refresher/overview
* causes too many persistent editor tabs to stay
* which:
* hog the system
* get mingled with the files you are actually working on
* require manual closing and additional precaution to avoid closing the intentional editor tabs
inspiration took as it is from: vscodium

`geany.activate()` is supposed activate a document and return true. If it is unable, it returns false. However, it is not activating the document. Accepted arguments are a tab id (negative numbers), document id (positive numbers), or full document path. Test code attempting to call `geany.activate()` with the document id (test1) and path (test2) follows:
```
test1 = geany.activate(geany.documents(geany.filename()))
doc_id = geany.documents(geany.filename())
test2 = geany.activate(doc_id)
for key,val in pairs({ test1, test2 }) do
if val then
geany.status("true")
else
geany.status("false")
geany.status(geany.documents(geany.filename()))
geany.status(geany.filename())
end
end
```
Results in status window are:
```
false
1
/tmp/test
false
1
/tmp/test
```
For reference, an excerpt from the GeanyLua [documentation](https://plugins.geany.org/geanylua/geanylua-ref.html#activat…:
> **`geany.activate ( tab_id )`**
>
> Activates the document specified by tab_id.
>
> If `tab_id` is a number, it activates the document at that index. A positive number refers to the internal document array, and a negative number refers to the (absolute) GtkNotebook index.
> Note that the indices begin at (1) and (-1) respectively.
>
> If `tab_id` is a string, the function will try to activate the notebook tab whose filename matches that string.
> ( The full pathname is required! )
>
> Returns `true` on success, or `false` if the tab could not be found.

Seems to be working (at least on Linux), not tested much. This doesn't add any functionality, though it's necessary if we want to add the other features at some point.

I have built Geany from commit 4508f77a1150b37d5e16c3e7fc9c7223bc591e88. I am very happy to have a list of members & methods in the symbols pane. And I appreciate the work going into Geany.
I have come across a bug in my build's TypeScript parser (ctags?). The parsing sometimes is incomplete. The following screenshot is of a class with methods `onEnterZone`, `autoWalkEnabled`, & `canInviteToGroup` which do not show up in the symbols panel:
In another class file there are methods `say` & `getCursor` which *do* show up in the symbols panel:
I am not sure what the difference is, but it appears there is something in the first file that is causing the parser to hiccup. I have not tried building from the latest commit to master branch, but browsing through the commits I don't see any changes referencing TypeScript.

Lua 5.1 has been deprecated (in a few years, will be two decades).
[LuaJIT](https://github.com/LuaJIT/LuaJIT) appears to be a drop-in replacement for Lua 5.1 that would require only build script or other minor changes. Based on Git activity, LuaJIT is actively maintained.

It has taken me over a month to be able to even reproduce what I'm calling a bug. This has to do with the vertical scrollbar and the mouse cursor when still over the scrollbar, and long left clicked.
When you place your cursor anywhere on the vertical scrollbar then **long**-left click, you'll see the scrollbar reduce in width by about 2px. If you've not yet released the left button, you can keep scrolling right off the scrollbar, right smack-dab onto the Geany Interface (UI). After the left-long click, the scrollbar moves at almost 2x slower the speed than the mouse cursor does.
The transitioning effect on the scrollbar looks like it might be GTK+ related and possibly not a bug at all, but I am reporting this because in my world of development, I would call being able to control the scrollbar from outside of a document window, a mistake. If this is a feature, can someone please tell me how to have Geany not respond to long clicks while I happen to do it on the scrollbar by accident?
This is a Windows binary
The Geany version is 1.3.8
Thank you!

Every time I start Geany, I have to open the Workbench file manually. A setting to remember the last opened workspace and open it when Geany is started, would be very helpful.
Also a list of recent workspaces (similar to the one already available for projects) would be nice to have.
