Hi, I've just encountered a bug which crashes Geany. It's easily reproducible: Step 1: In a php file (saved and recognized by Geany as PHP) type the following: <?php echo '<option>'.$x.'</option>'; ?>

Step 2: Edit the line of code editing it in the following manner: - first edit it to look like this echo '<option>'.$x.'< '.$y.'</option>'; - then try to add >(there is a space before >) before </option> so it would look like this: echo '<option>'.$x.'< '.$y.' ></option>';

Step 3: Geany crashes. Below I include the backtrace.
