[Geany] Question about highlight words/text in a document
by Vineet Jain 25 Oct '10

25 Oct '10

The higlighting words in a document is really useful. Occasionally, I need to highlight text which are not exactly words. I currently use document usage and they click on each entry: 1. Is there a way to highlight all occurrences of some text in a document? 2. Also it would be nice to highlight words/texts when you use document usage. Thanks, Vineet

[Geany] How does everyone search and search and replace
by Vineet Jain 25 Oct '10

25 Oct '10

I've made the transform over from ultraedit to genay and love it. Thought I'd never be able to pull it off. In fact there are things I now miss in geany when I have to occasional work in ultraedit. The symbols plugin. The highlights of all the words selected. But one thing I just can not get working right is the workflow for search and search replace. I've tried several things and this is currently my process: 1. I've mapped the keys for find next to be F3 2. I've mapped the keys for fine next selection to be F2 I now highlight the work by double clicking. then press F2 and then have to switch to F3 for all subsequent finds. With ultraedit it was super natural. I would highlight the word by double clicking it and would just then press F3 to search. It would search for the highlighted word. My problem is that geany does not allow for find next and find next selection to be mapped to the same key. I have to change keys and remember that on the first one I have to do F2 and then do F3. There has to be a better way for something that is so core to a code editor. VIneet

[Geany] HTML5 entities
by Ross McKay 25 Oct '10

25 Oct '10

G'day, The following can be tacked onto the end of the html keywords line in filetypes.xml for the HTML5 new elements to be recognised: article aside audio canvas command details datalist figure figcaption footer header hgroup keygen mark meter nav output progress section time video wbr What would be quite nice is to be able to have different modes for HTML/XHTML to allow for the defined keywords of each doctype to be recognised as appropriate, e.g. HTML <=4 and XHTML won't know what a canvas is so it should appear as an error in those doctypes, and HTML5 won't know what center is (which is just as well because it's misspelled in all but Wronglish :) Admittedly that's a bit of a tall order, and I have no clue where to start -- but I might sit on it as a possible plugin someday. If somebody just happens to sort it out sooner, I reckon there'd be quite a few happy people about the place! cheers, Ross -- Ross McKay, Toronto, NSW Australia "And don't forget ladies and gentlemen you have to buy this new thing that you don't have and if you have it well actually the new better version of the thing that you have well it just came out" - Jackson Jackson

Is there a way to compile multiple files in geany? I work with a lot of c and c++ programs so I hope there is a way to compile both with multiple files.

[Geany] Python plugins ? (status update )
by Oliver Marks 21 Oct '10

21 Oct '10

Is anyone actively working on this still or what has been done so far, i am very keen to see this because although i dont know c very well and how to embed python into another app, i do know python very well and i am itching to write a load of plugins :) currently i have a sftp file syncing app and php debug app but they are both currently external to geany but would benefit greatly from integration directly with the editor, to improve my workflow.

[Geany] Workflow for find in files
by Vineet Jain 19 Oct '10

19 Oct '10

I would like to thank everyone for geany. I never thought I would be able to move away from ultraedit, and really don't miss ultraedit that much. 1. I use find in files quite often across a large nested source tree. One of the problem with the current find in files process is that the default behavior is to search in the current folder. Almost in most cases, I want to search at the project root. It would be great if geany could remember the last entry in the find in files an not update the directory based on which dir you are in. 2. Also the default behavior for the grep is to search in all files. Normally, I would like to search just in *.py files. I've tried --include and can't seem to get it working. grep -nHIrF --include=*.{py,txt} -- select /some/dir Has anyone got the include option working with grep in find in files? Thanks, Vineet

[Geany] tags files classes
by Oliver Marks 09 Oct '10

09 Oct '10

can the custom tag files handle classes so it only autocompletes methods under the class, so if i type myclass. it woudl then list func1 func2 and func3 so if i declare test as an instance of myclass typing test. should also list the methods. Can we currently do this ? and if we can whats the format for the tags file ? myclass: def func1(): pass def func2(): pass def func3(): pass test=myclass()

[Geany] Can Geany perform auto-completion with imported modules ?
by Steven Marguet 07 Oct '10

07 Oct '10

Hello everybody, I am a new Geany's user and I wonder if Geany can do auto-completion with a module imported using a namespace. Such a functionnality could realy help me to learn the attributes and methods offered by the imported module... For example, if I do (in Python) : | import math as m | m.s is it possible for Geany to show me that there is a "sin(x)" method and many other things starting with an "s" ? Thanks for your answer :) ! Steven PS : And thanks for Geany which is realy enjoyable to work with !

[Geany] geany cygwin build?
by Liviu Andronic 06 Oct '10

06 Oct '10

Dear all Is anyone aware of a Cygwin build for Geany? I've seen this issue pop-up once on the ml this year, without a clear outcome. The reason I would need a Cygwin build is that I would like to use Geany for R programming, that is make use of its embedded vte terminal. Perhaps there is another way to get a terminal in the Windows build of Geany? Other ideas? Thank you Liviu -- Do you know how to read? http://www.alienetworks.com/srtest.cfm http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/applications/xfce4-dict#speed-reader Do you know how to write? http://garbl.home.comcast.net/~garbl/stylemanual/e.htm#e-mail
