I am Pradeep from Chennai, INDIA. I am interested in opensource projects (editors especially). I have contributed couple of plugins to Mozilla'a skywriter ( a browser based editor). I really like to contribute few plugins to GEANY. I was searching for the dev env set up for Geany. But couldn't find any doc on the same. Can someone give me some pointer to set up my development environment?
Maybe you questions is better severed at at geany-devel mailinglist. However: There not much a Geany development environment may you might know from Eclipse etc.
You can check out the code for github for either Geany itself [1] or its plugins collection [2] repository and compile Geany as described inside the documentation. Now you are ready to start you own development. Inside Geany source code you will find a file called HACKING, which is giving you some more details e.g. about coding style or how to debug with gdb. If you want to start a new plugin, you might like to have a look at short plugin howto at [3]
I'm afraid I don't know what might other questions you have related to this asI'm doing it for >5 years now and I might lost some basic, important information which is not necessarily to everybody ;) So please don't hesitate to ask.
Cheers, Frank
