Hello everybody,
I've been happily using Geany for a little while now, coding mostly in
Python. I have a couple questions:
1. For a dark color scheme, eg Vibrant Ink, how do i get the active
line to not be highlighted. White text + white highlighting =
invisible text on the line I'm trying to edit. Arrgh!
2. Any debugger advice for python? I am finding winpdb is pretty slow
and actually crashes on my machine a fair amount.
I'm on a windows 7 64 bit installation.
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm switching from SciTE to Geany, as I feel features provided by Geany are
exact what I missed in SciTE
Thanks to dev team and special thanks to creator on Lua plugin, which made
my transition seamless :)
My problem is column selection mode. I'm used to hold Ctrl then point,
click and drag. This feature seems like buggy in Geany, most of time it
doesn't work.
I then found out that I can use Shift+Ctrl which works as expected, but I
first need to position cursor then do this selection, while if I use SciTE
I just point and drag without positioning first.
Is there better solution to this problem, that may be not so obvious to new
user?
TIA
I wonder if it's possible to insert in multiple places within a
snippet the same string? For example, I have a snippet which inserts
some HTML code that refers to an image and I use the description of
the image in two places within the same snippet. As I understand the
manual, you insert "%cursor%" anywhere that you want the cursor to
jump to so that the user can insert text. If I enter a title for an
image in my example snippet I would prefer to have that also inserted
elsewhere in the same snippet.

Hello Lex,
Thanks for the info. I'm planning to use phpCodeSniffer as a start. It's a command line tool that outputs errors and warnings about coding style after reading the PHP code. It's syntax is something like this phpcs file.php.
I wanted to create a more easy to use interface for this, maybe a plugin or something, that outputs such checks, once enabled, in the Geany warnings or something. I use the built-in terminal to check my code with phpcodesniffer, phpunit and other tools, but it's quite a pain to change everything once in a while.
ps.: Can i write a plugin to create more than one built-in terminal screens, with pre-scripted commands? For example, automatically create a built-in terminal window that runs the following command: watch -n 1 php FILE_BEING_EDITED.php (great debugging)

Detected error lines are marked and the message in the message window is red and is a link to the source line. I'm not a PHP programmer so I don't know what the tool you mention does but if its anything like a compiler or lint program then add it to the filetype section (see the manual).

Hi Everyone,
I wonder if this is a bug and if so if it is a geany bug or the tool kit
that geany uses.
to reproduce
click save
click browser folder
click create folder
type "a\n"
type "b"
expected
"b" go into the name field
observed
"b" goes into an unamed test field that magically appears
see attached png
Sincerely,
Russell Treleaven
Hello to all,
In komodo you have code blocks highlighted with an horizontal dotted line as shown in the attached image.
Is there anything like that in geany?
I find very useful for long blocks.
Thank you

Hi all,
Since i discovered Geany i'm changing the default text editor in all
my computers. At work we have a machine with Windows OS. In Windows,
i noticed lines looks more together than i see in my gnome desktop.
It is not much comfortable to work with dense texts.
Is there a way to increase line spacing? I was looking for it but
nothing found in prefs.
Thanks.
Hallo,
I use Geany 0.20 potable under win32.
Can anyone please explain to me what exactly are the two executables
for:
gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe
and
gspawn-win32-helper.exe
Is there any documentation available about these two programs?
Thank you
Wolfgang
Hello,
I think this is may be my first post here. I've been using Geany for years now,
and am very grateful for it.
I'm working on a LaTeX .tex document (my thesis), and I've gotten into the habit
of using the Reflow command to convert my long lines into shorter ones, for the
sake of easier version control (I have the long line marker turned on, so it
reflows to that). But I've noticed that on reflow, it'll split up a word like:
\cite{abc}
into:
\cite
{abc}
to make the most of the space. I'd like it to treat the whole thing as a single
unbreakable word. Same goes for stuff like:
(\degree)
which, depending on where it is in the line, sometimes reflows into:
(
\degree)
These are two different things in LaTeX, because a newline in the source is
turned into a space in the output.
I assume the reflow command uses the same logic as the next word/previous word
keyboard commands to determine what needs to be treated as an unbreakable word.
I've noticed that next/previous word navigation also stops at { and }.
So, I've tried both adding and removing { and } to the "wordchars" setting in my
filetypes.latex, as well as to the "whitespace_chars" setting in my
filetypes.common, to no avail. I currently have "use_gtk_word_boundaries=false"
in my geany.conf, because I prefer the way next/previous word navigation works
with it.
Can anyone advise how to force curly brackets to be considered part of a word?
Have I stumbled upon a limitation, or maybe a bug?
I'm running the latest geany from git, and the latest plugins (including
GeanyLaTeX) from svn, on Ubuntu 11.04.
Thanks,
Martin

Not platform-independent, but have you considered GNU Screen?
