cannot run multiple execute commands
by Jan Alster 09 Aug '20

09 Aug '20

Hi, I would like to ask for help with following issue. I have recently switched to new Debian system and now I cannot run multiple python scripts from Geany (via F5) at the same time. On my previous system I could run many and the spawned terminals were open as long as the scripts were running (pressing F5 the second time seemingly detached the terminal from Geany and third press of F5 could start a new script in a new terminal). Now the spawned terminal closes immediately after pressing F5 second time (and it kills python even if it is not finished). strace shows that the terminal gets SIGTERM from Geany. Is that a new feature? I cannot find a way how to keep the terminal running. Thanks, Jan

There are several good C++ compilers for Windows 10. Which one works best with Geany? Thank you!

this modification could be cool

Hello everybody, I am a Geany user and I use a lot of include files in my projects. In the left "Documents" list, it is not so easy to find quickly the files I'm working on, that could be much easier if the 5 last used files were in another color or bold. It is already the case for the files not saved, so it could be easy to implement for recent files. All the best Jean-Philippe

Re: [Geany-Users] geanynumberedbookmarks shortcuts not working

I only had two other plugins enabled. Disabled both just in case, restarted but still no numbered bookmarks. Strange!

geanynumberedbookmarks shortcuts not working
by Stan Dragnev 24 Jun '20

24 Jun '20

Hi all, My build: geany 1.36 (built on Apr 8 2020 with GTK 3.24.20, GLib 2.64.2) Running on openSUSE Tumbleweed. Anyone have an idea why numberedbookmarks shortcuts may not work? Pressing ctrl+shift+<number> does nothing. Regular bookmarks are saved across sessions so the plugin appears to be working but numbered bookmarks aren't added. I don't think anything else is hijacking the shortcut because I have the exact same key combo for bookmarks in another IDE (phpstorm) and those work just fine. Geany's don't whether phpstorm is running or not (it's not interfering either). Any suggestions on how I can troubleshoot this? Stan

Is there a feature like bookmarks, but for hopping between files?
by John Gabriele 11 Jun '20

11 Jun '20

I'd like to be able to quickly move back and forth between two files. I tried using bookmarks, but they only work for within one file. Is there a feature or plug-in that's like bookmarks, but for files instead of locations within one file? Thanks, -- John

The easiest way to use bookmarks in a large Geany project, is to simply double click on some string of interest, right click on screen and click on Find Usage option. The message window will list whever the string was found in all open files. Click on any message to set focus directly on corresponding file and line number. You can put your custom bookmarks as often and anywhere you like. Or even better, just use preexisting variable, function names, code, whatever... If you are using python, you can also customize pylint to do similar.

Trouble seeing things
by ToddAndMargo 08 Jun '20

08 Jun '20

Hi All, Fedora 32 geany-1.36-3.fc32.x86_64 NEC MultiSync E231W I adore that I can trace down opening and closing brackets { } by turning them blue. Problem: I have trouble seeing the blue color as it is really dim. (I have no trouble seeing the red ones.) I also have a lot of variables with underscore in them: $a_b Another problem: I can't see the underscore and think it is a space Anyone have any words of wisdom? Many thanks, -T -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Computers are like air conditioners. They malfunction when you open windows ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

GUI menu underlined alt key keyboard controls
by John Gabriele 02 Jun '20

02 Jun '20

My version of Geany doesn't have the little underlined letters in menu names and menu items, so that I can see which Alt keys access which GUI menus and menu items. Is there an option in Geany to have or not have those little underlines present? Or would that interfere with other Geany keyboard shortcuts?

How to get rid of Find dialog after wrap search
by John Gabriele 02 Jun '20

02 Jun '20

If I go to Find (ctrl-F), and find what I'm looking for, I can then hit Esc to make the dialog box go away and get back to editing. But if I reach the bottom of the document, and wrap search and find again, then reach what I was looking for, the Find dialog does not have focus, and hitting Esc does not make it go away. After wrapping a search and finding what I want, how do I then make the Find dialog go away? (Without using the mouse. :) ). Thanks, -- John
