Hi all,
I really have no idea how many people are using the default Geany project management functionality (no, I do not mean the extensions, I mean when you fresh-install Geany and you open few files and save them as a project), but I use only this way the projects in Geany.
However, working on multiple machines on the same project could be a bit of a headache, since you need to copy over the project files ('.geany' files) and eventually edit them.
Normally I rarely work from home, so I use to work on my office code only in the office, but since we are now in this stupid COVID-19 situation and we are all (well, most of us) forced to work from home, it becomes a need to sort of migrate the projects. Or to be precise, I need to do it, since in the office I work on a Debian desktop box and at home I work on another Debian box. Today I started to manually edit a .geany project file and while it wasn't that big, I actually have some files which indicate sessions with lots of files. Therefore I decided to spend a bit of time to create a script to automate this and save myself lots of time in the future.
I know probably nobody might be in the same situation, but in case anyone is, I am sharing my script.
I am using only core Perl functionality, so no prerequisites here. Just download and run (after you edit few lines in the script to do your own setup).

Set up Geany too use python3: GOTO > Tools > Configuration Files > Filetype Configuration > Scripting Languages > filetypes.python -->
Change: EX_00_CM=python2 "%f" > EX_00_CM=python3 "%f"
Restart Geany.
This worked for me. It's your decision to make.
