How to assign keybindings
by e.antonoff＠yahoo.com 01 Mar '24

01 Mar '24

Hello, PROBLEM: I want to make key bindings for some custom tools I set Geany to run. Geany version 1.38 "Sulamar", running on Lubuntu 22.04 LTS. So in the "Set build commands" panel I have set some custom python utilities to run. Please see the included screenshot. So far so good and they work when I execute them from within Geany. My accent for the question are what I defined under "Python commands" - mypy and Lint (which runs 'flake8') and then on the bottom in "Execute commands" as "Pythonic format" which runs 'black' (yes, unfortunately there are only 3 entries for "Python commands", while I need 4 in reality but so far I can live with it). Actual QUESTION is - HOW to assign key bindings for the 3 tools I am most interested in - mypy, flake8 and black ? The "Set build commands" panel does not offer such thing and in Preferences > Key bindings > Build I don't see the tools I have set in "Set build commands". In fact maybe there is a way to add any number of custom tools for Geany to run with various keybindings, but I haven't figured it out yet ? Thanks!

[SOLVED] is there a way to change automatically change file permissions after building an executable?
by Bangor Makerspace 29 Feb '24

29 Feb '24

I can't believe I figured it out. I added sudo chown root:root "%e" && sudo chmod 4755 "%e" && "./%e" to the build commands, and this worked. (I thought for sure it would raise permission issues) Thank you for entertaining my query. -- Eric Lovejoy Bangor Makerspace Outreach liaison.

I am using pigpio to build C programs for raspberry pi. Annoyingly, every time I recompile, I have to to do: sudo chown root:root prog_name sudo chmod 4755 prog_name Is there anything I can do with the build macros or something to perform these actions automatically? -- Eric Lovejoy Bangor Makerspace Outreach liaison.

Finding css classes when developing website
by H 22 Feb '24

22 Feb '24

Running geany 1.37 on CentOS 7. I am working on a website using the project manager and would like to be able to quickly find a particular css class in any number of css files in several directories belonging to the project. I think what I would like is for css classes to be listed under the Symbols tab in geany, then be able to click on the class name and open the file for editing. Since the same css class might be found in multiple css files in the project, the file name should also be visible. So far, I have found that I can search for a class symbol "Find in Project Files" but it is a bit awkward since it defaults to the project directory whereas the css files are actually under /var/www/html/mysite/ which is an external project directory. Even if I do a search, the "Find in Project Files" selection resets to the actual project directory for each new search. Is what I would like to do possible? Or, is there another way of accomplishing this?

Minor Question
by Bob Mariotti 13 Feb '24

13 Feb '24

Hiya, I'm sorry if this is the wrong place for this but I'm trying anyway. I've been using Geany for decades and like it very much. But I recently had to rebuild my system and reinstall geany. Even though I've tweaked the preferences there's one thing I cannot seem to get back. That is when a file is opened a kind of tab appears on the top of the document window and it turns red if the file is changed but NOT saved, and turns normal if its saved. Can someone please point me to where this item could be changed? Thanks all. BobMCT

Possible VTE Bug
by ba-open-git 28 Jan '24

28 Jan '24

Hello, I'm working on a program to read from a serial port via USB serial device. I started working on it when I was using Geany v. 1.38. With that version, it would compile and run in the VTE widget just fine. I recently updated to 2.0 (through Flathub). Now whenever I start my program in the VTE I keep getting a: Error 9 from tcgetattr: Bad file descriptor whenever I try to configure the port. I feel like this is a Geany 2.0 problem because like I mentioned, it ran fine in v. 1.38. Also, my program runs fine in a separate terminal window.

tabbing issue
by Ray Andrews 17 Jan '24

17 Jan '24

Not sure if this is a bug or not but it looks like one: Tabbing is supposta ignore 'odd' leading spaces and take you rightward to the next multiple of whatever the tab size is, yes? Of course -- we use tabs to cure raggedness. But I noticed something: if a line has auto-wrapped, then that changes -- if within the top part of a line (that hasn't wrapped) I hit tab, I get moved rightward (whatever tab size is set to) characters and what was ragged before the tab is exactly the same raggedness after the tab. IOW, to appearances, the tab simply adds (tab size) spaces. If I then go to the end of the wrapped line and start deleting characters until the line no longer wraps, the above problem cures itself and every thing snaps back to normal tab behavior. Is this a bug or a feature?

h4 headings in html documents not visible in Geany sidebar
by Terry N 07 Jan '24

07 Jan '24

Hello. When creating or editing html documents, Geany only shows headings h1, h2 and h3 in the sidebar. When viewed in a web browser, h4 headings show in the documents (and in a dynamically created table of contents in the documents). Is there any way to configure Geany to show the h4 headings in the sidebar? tjn
