Hi, would it be possible to provide portable builds for Windows? In the releases there seems to be only an installer, which may not be desirable.

I typed `\n`, tried both regular expressions with multi-line matching and escape sequences. None of them worked.
I'm using Geany on Windows via PortableApps.

After a few minutes editing, Geany freezes with cpu usage increasing to 100%. Force quit required.

Could a FAQ entry be added for geany and linked in from the main README?
I think there was one already, but when I looked at the main readme I did not find it again.
I may eventually find it, but it would be easier to add a link to it. If a FAQ does not yet exist
then I think it may be useful to add one.
For instance, a simple question I have is: "how do I show the vte terminal on the bottom"?
This is especially useful as an answer because I often don't have that terminal and then I
need to find out why not, which takes some time away. So having a FAQ entry here helps
a lot. (And once I know it I move on to other things, so other people can not benefit from
me having solved this issue, which is also why I think a FAQ entry would be neat.)
Also, in addition to that, I'd love some page or FAQ entries about customizing geany. Right
now I don't what is all possible (to explain: I did a hiatus in regards to geany, so I am only
recently picking up things again, but most of my time investment goes into other things
unrelated from writing software or handling computers directly).

Hi there,
I am using the latest git checkout source.
Under Fonts, in the settings, we have three entries:
1) Editor
2) Symbol List
3) Message Window
What I believe may be missing is the default fonts for the whole menu.
Perhaps the latter is done via the system theme, but I am using icewm, so ideally
I would like to be able to increase the other "missing" fonts as well. I have a very
wide monitor now and the default fonts are too small for me to easily see.
Changing the font size of e. g. the editor, works fine, so I have large fonts there,
but the e. g. at the menu "Interfaces", that part is small and I can not seem to be
able to increase or change the font size (in the settings widget).
Is it even possible to change the font there, from within geany? I assume geany
already has some way to query the font size, even if it comes from a theme, but
as said I use a simple WM, so I am not sure how to change the theme size. Ideally
we would be able to change ALL fonts, and if some are system-settings, perhaps
a simple small widget, available via some red alert icon, can indicate that the user
should not change these other fonts, unless the user knows what he or she is
doing (in addition to the current three one, which seem fine to change for everybody).

When writing a program in C, the moment I type the opening parenthesis of printf function I get a very annoying little tip/hint box just below the printf function.
printf(
`int printf (const char * __ format, ...)`
And it won't go away unless I push up/down button on my keyboard or click somewhere on the screen or type the closing parenthesis. I need to disable it.

Hi,
I used EditPlus for coding years ago. It's really a great program, to be honest. But I've always tried to support the Free Software movement by at least trying to use as much GPL applications as possible. Therefore, when I resumed programming, I went to see if there was a free equivalent to EditPlus. And I was glad to find Geany.
However, I'm having a really hard time adjusting to it. Maybe it just does things differently and I'm simply not used to it, but I find that even simple tasks can't be accomplished. I just filed a bug report because I have a very large UTF-8 encoded file (about 18MB) and I can't convert it to ISO-8859-1 without throwing an error it shouldn't produce in the first place (I checked the file with an hex editor and encoding seems valid).
Now I'm having a really hard time using regular expressions to process an SQL file. In EditPlus I could do simple things like replace a duplicated line (replace '\n\n' with '\n') but Geany "doesn't find anything". I've tried both regular mode and multi-line. And I can't seem to make it to work.
Given the similarities between EditPlus and Geany, I'd like to suggest some more changes. For now, I'd be happy with having it to run properly.

This patch unifies the behavior of utils_write_file() with write_data_to_disk() so all 3 methods of file saving are supported.
From having a look at where this function is used, by Geany it's used only to store configuration files in the .config directory and some auxiliary functions like writing the export file by the exporter plugin. In the geany-plugins project this function is used only for saving configuration files.
Before this patch, by ignoring the default GIO file operation settings, the fwrite() method was used by default for saving configuration files which wasn't very safe and could lead to configuration file loss under some extreme conditions.
The documentation of this function was changed to reflect the situation better than now - the previous comment made the impression that file permissions were always preserved with this method but it wasn't the case and depended on the exact configuration. Technically this is an API change but since this function is used for saving configuration files only in practice, it should not be a problem.
