[Geany] Extending Geany
by Kurt Maier 17 Jun '06

17 Jun '06

Hi, I've seen a lot of feature requests for things that don't fit Geany's "keep it lightweight" philosophy. I was wondering how hard it would be to make Geany extensible? Xchat, Gaim, and many other programs have perl scripting plugins, as well as python, tcl, and other sorts. I'd be interested to know if this is feasible -- if Geany had some kind of plugin architecture, we could keep the benefits of a small IDE, but allow third-party customization for things like subversion, gdb, and so on.

[Geany] Feature wish: Subversion repos utilities
by Nexu 17 Jun '06

17 Jun '06

Hello, I'm using this very nice lightweight IDE to code my Python projects in. What i would really like to see is the ability to work with Subversion(SVN) repositories to check status, logs, diff, checkout, update and commit files, all the essential SVN commands from the IDE within the GUI. The message 'window' area would be very suitable for this imo. Regards

[Geany] WishList (I can help with implementation if you point places)
by Yura Semashko 15 Jun '06

15 Jun '06

Hi, thanks for nice editor, I am working on Belarusian translation now. Currently I use emacs or scite for my small C,C++,Python projects, Geany looks like a nice replacement to them but I lack several features. 1) Go to tag declaration/definition should use word pointed by mouse not cursor. Example: foo() ba<cursor is here>r() If I left click on "foo" and choose go to tag declaration, geany will try to find "bar" (I wish "foo") 2) Ability to jump to error line atfer compilation failed (using hotkey or by clicking on compiler output) 3) Project mangement (I don't require complicated stuff or GUI for editing it) Project file can look like simple file with few record: example: PROJECT_SOURCES = foo.c bar/bar.c MAKE_DIR = ~/projects/fooproj When you load project it simply open all files in PROJECT_SOURCES. Also it would be nice to have MAKE_DIR variable for specifying makefile location because if I have structure like this: bar/bar.c foo.c makefile I will get "no makefile error" if I edit "bar.c" and try to hit build key. 5) Ability to call external program for word poined by cursor. (Will use for calling documentation browser) 6) Debuger support (I understand that this one is most complicated and unlikely be implemented) -- Best regards, Yura Semashko

[Geany] Windows build of Geany 0.7
by Enrico Tröger 08 Jun '06

08 Jun '06

Hi, I have built Geany under Windows 2000 and zipped all necessary files together. Please be patient, it is not very well tested, one reason maybe, that Windows is not my favourite operating system ;-). But I think it is usable. The problem with the new button which existed in the last build for Windows is fixed and maybe some other things, too. As in the last Windows build, some features are missing: - complete build support (perhaps will be added later) - notification if file on disk has changed (perhaps will be added later) - embedded terminal emulation (VTE, as far as I know there is nothing equal for Windows) - support for detecting a running instance Some of them will maybe added later, but at least at the moment I don't know how to implement them. The more user request them the better are the changes to get them. Furthermore, I have no idea whether this build runs on all Windows versions, I have only tested it under Windows 2000 SP4. To run Geany under Windows you need the GTK runtime libraries, download it from: For Windows 2000 and newer: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gimp-win/gtk%2B-2.8.9-setup-1.zip?downlo… For Windows 98 and older: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gimp-win/gtk%2B-2.6.10-20050823-setup.zi… -------- Download: http://files.uvena.de/geany/geany-0.7_win32.zip -------- In the future Windows builds can be closer to the normal releases and I would also provide an installer with included GTK runtime libraries for easier installation and use. But this depends on the demand. I don't want to spend much time on the Windows build if no one uses it. So, please mail me if you (want to) use it and write your comments, bug reports or anything else.

[Geany] New Release: Geany 0.7
by Enrico Tröger 04 Jun '06

04 Jun '06

Hi, Geany 0.7 has been released. Changes since Geany 0.6: * user-definable keyboard shortcuts * filetype definition files can be overridden in Geany's configuration directory (please see documentation) * added filetypes Ruby and Tcl/Tk * improved build system (for Perl, Python, Ruby and others) * loading of Virtual Terminal Emulation can be disabled in the preferences dialog * new menu item "Search" with Find items from Edit menu and new item "Find Previous" * fixed the bug which let Geany crash with newer GTK versions * improved documentation: added documentation for keyboard shortcuts, the build system and filetype definition files * new translations: Catalan and Polish * many small improvements * fixed lots of bugs (please see ChangeLog for details) All downloads can be found on http://geany.uvena.de/ http://files.uvena.de/geany/ or https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=153444 Some notes: Since this version, it is possible to override the filetype definition files in Geany's configuration directory. To do so, just copy any definition files you want to override in the subdirectory "filedefs" in Geany's configuration directory and edit is as needed. This has the advantage, that you don't have to be root(in the case that Geany is e.g. installed somewhere in /usr) and that the changes will be still available after an update of Geany. For further information, please read the documentation, section "Filetype definition files". And since this version, you can define your own keyboard shortcuts. This can be done in the preferences dialog. There are some actions for which you set shortcuts. If you think an action is missing, just say it. We have updated the documentation, now you can find more information about the build system, the keyboard shortcuts and the format of the filetype definition files. Please read it. *Important* The bug, which let Geany crash with newer GTK versions(> 2.8.10) has been fixed. Now, Geany should be more stable. Please test it. We will be happy about any feedback, whether positive or negative ;-). Regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.key Geany, a lightweight IDE using GTK2 - http://geany.uvena.de

[Geany] Feature request.
by shutdownrunner＠tlen.pl 29 May '06

29 May '06

Hi I like geany so much that I'm preparing a Polish translation for it. Enough of joking:) What I would really like geany to have is some better way argument prompting(when you write some common function and you get the list of required arguments in the form of a tooltip) is handled. So far it disappears after the first argument is given and there is no way to bring it back somehow. E.g. in Dreamweaver you could make it reappear after pressing Ctrl+Spacebar. It might be a task for some distant future, but I'd like to know your opinion on it. Best regards, Jacek Wolszczak

[Geany] New Geany developer and commit mailing list
by Enrico Tröger 29 May '06

29 May '06

Hi, Geany has a new developer: Frank Lanitz. He takes care of the German translation and manages all other translation issues of Geany. Geany 0.7 will have a Polish translation and other languages are in progress. Thank you for this. So, if you are interested in translating Geany in another language or you found a mistake in an existing translation, please contact Frank (frank(a)frank.uvena.de) or just write to this mailing list. Last week I created a new mailing list for Subversion commits. This mailing list is read only. You can subscribe to it and then you will receive all subversion commits with a short summary of the changes. This list is probably not very interesting for users, but if you want to subscribe, visit http://uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany-commits. regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.key Geany, a lightweight IDE using GTK2 - http://geany.uvena.de

[Geany] Character set conversion
by Tim Tassonis 29 May '06

29 May '06

Hi all First of all, geany is great and many thanks to its author and all its contributors. I really would like to switch all my development work to geany, but there seems to be one major problem: geany converts all my source files from latin1 to utf-8 when I save them. I have several projects where I absolutely cannot just switch everything to utf-8 and would really need the possibility to retain the latin1 character set. Maybe I missed something how this can be done, any enviromnent variable, command line options or config file setting? Bye Tim

It also keeps the > original pointer intact. Thanks, looks good. I changed only one line: source_len = strlen(source); But there is another problem, I discovered while looking at the code: I use this function to parse the hex colours for syntax highlighting. But strtod evaluates 0x0000ff to red, but it is blue. This means, strtod is simply the wrong function and I will remove it. Anyway thanks for the patch. ;-) I just have written the code to get the correct colour values and it is much easier, but therefore most of the syntax colouring will change and I want to keep it, so there is some work needed to adopt the colouring. Therefore, your patch will be applied as long as this issue is fixed. regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.key Geany, a lightweight IDE using GTK2 - http://geany.uvena.de
