Expand/collapse if/fi, for/done, while/done in Shellscripts like for functions
by Mikolaj Ch 15 Sep '18

15 Sep '18

In https://www.geany.org/Support/PluginWishlist there is: - Expand/collapse if/fi, for/done, while/done in Shellscripts like for functions. - already possible by adding own snippets, check the manual <http://www.geany.org/manual/#user-definable-snippets> for details. but it is not clear from the manual how to do it. >From help snippets are about autocompletion so I have not idea how to use it to do expand/collapse for if/fi, for/done, while/done in Shellscripts ?

Auto-close quotes and brackets
by e2qb2a44f＠prolan-power.hu 15 Sep '18

15 Sep '18

For example, in the case of parentheses and fu(8); If one enables the "auto-close opening parenthesis" feature, then: Instead of typing f u ( 8 ) ; ENTER he/she have to type f u ( 8 ARROW_RIGHT ; ENTER ? Is this all the gain? (The same number of keystrokes..) (Or I am missing something?) --

Customizing Geany's appearance using GTK+3 CSS
by Jérôme Andanson 14 Sep '18

14 Sep '18

Hi all ! I want to change some colors in message windows, previously with Geany 1.31 (or 1.32 ?) on Mint 18, I succeeded by following the documentation about geany.css [1]. But for now with Geany 1.32 (GTK+3.22.26) on Mint 19, change to this file does not work anymore, any idea ? I have in .config/geany/geany.css : /* compiler message colors */ #geany-compiler-error { color: #ff0000; } #geany-compiler-context { color: #ff0000; } #geany-compiler-message { color: #4C73D4; } But colors are still default one. Thanks a lot for this really good IDE :) Jerome [1] https://www.geany.org/manual/current/#customizing-geany-s-appearance-using-…

? Capturing context_action's output
by e2qb2a44f＠prolan-power.hu 14 Sep '18

14 Sep '18

Hi, Is there any way to capture the "context action"'s output? (And show it in the Messages tab, as for "Find in files".) Is context_action_cmd=grep "%s" /some/dir (or similar, i.e. console commands) valid at all? (Currently does not seem to work.. Nothing happens..) --

SavingDebuggerOutput
by Geoff Kaniuk 13 Sep '18

13 Sep '18

Is there a way to save the output on the Debug Terminal panel? I have tried selecting text with the mouse, then CTRL+SHIFT+C, but this is not copied. The debugger session is saved to my project.geany file. -- Geoff 33 Ashbury Close, Cambridge CB1 3RW 01223 710582

08 Sep '18

I tried to open a Windows .ini file, but the characters look Chinese. The file is a text file. Is there something I need to do to properly view it? Thanks, Andrew Kennedy Sent via personal computer"It is always too soon to quit."

pair tag highlighter Q?
by R. Mariotti 07 Sep '18

07 Sep '18

This is a useful plugin. I am wondering if there is or can be a way to add something like Ctrl+B to jump to the paired tag? This feature is invaluable when finding braces/brackets and would also be extremely useful when trying to match html tags. Thoughts??? Thanks

Unable to install geany-plugin-markdown
by Abel 04 Sep '18

04 Sep '18

Hi. I'm in Ubuntu 16.04 (xenial) and I use the ppa repo ( http://ppa.launchpad.net/geany-dev/ppa/ubuntu) for my apt. Recently I was missing the plugin for markdown preview, so I tried to install it using: apt install geany-plugin-markdown and I get this error: Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable distribution that some required packages have not yet been created or been moved out of Incoming. The following information may help to resolve the situation: The following packages have unmet dependencies: geany-plugin-markdown : Depends: geany-abi-71 Depends: geany-plugins-common (= 1.32+dfsg-1~16.04) but 1.33+dfsg-1~16.04 is to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages. How can I fix this? :S Saludos, * Abel.*

Edit files with append attribute
by Andrew Kennedy 04 Sep '18

04 Sep '18

I added the append only attribute to a text file. But I get operation not permitted when I try to use Geany to edit the file. But I can use "echo new >> test.txt and it does append. What am I not understanding? Thanks, Andrew Kennedy Sent via personal computer"It is always too soon to quit."

Autosave question
by Andrew Kennedy 03 Sep '18

03 Sep '18

Autosave Any situation that causes Geany to stop unexpectedly can cause unsaved files to be lost, that includes logout, shutdown, crash etc. Had a question about this. Do those situation only apply if those events occur while Geany is open? Sent via personal computer"It is always too soon to quit."
