Geany may use any command line interpreter, but there is no option in settings to set variables for this terminal session. For example I use bash and do not want geany's bash to save all it's `cd`s and program executions to `.bash_history`.
I would like `unset HISTFILE` command would be ran every time I open geany

I personally don't think adding support for setting arbitrary environment variables in Geany is necessary.
An easy solution would be to specify a specific RC file to the bash command line in Geany's preferences, like `bash --rcfile /home/username/.bash_geany.rc` and then put anything you need into this RC file and optionally include/source your "real" .bashrc when appropriate.

@Yanpas there's also an option for prefixing `cd`-like commands Geany sends, meant just for allowing those not to be put in the history: [`send_cmd_prefix`](http://www.geany.org/manual/#various-preferences).
