Undo

One annoying feature is there is no "undo" (or Ctrl-Z) for the Scribble section. I, and my butter fingers, would be most appreciative if someone could program it so Ctrl-Z worked in the Scribble section too. Thank you. Pance

String freeze for Geany-Plugins 1.33
by Frank Lanitz 13 Feb '18

13 Feb '18

Hi translators, As Geany is getting a new major release, the Geany-Plugins are getting too -- 1.33 will be released soon. In preparation I have updated the po-files for Geany-Plugins at github and asking you whether you could update translations, review them or maybe add new languages. As on Geany core, I'd be very happy if you could send a patch, a pull request or single file with translation to either the geany-i18n mailing list or direct to me within the next week so we can include it to the next release. Deadline will be also 2018-02-24 24:00h CET. To get most recent files you could just clone the repositories from Geany: https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins This can be done e.g. with git clone https://github.com/geany/geany-plugins.git Also at http://i18n.geany.org/plugins are statistics and daily updated files available. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ping me directly via IRC: geany @freenode (frlan) Jabber/XMPP: frlan(a)jabber.ccc.de or via Mail: look above or some of the mailing lists. Happy translating! Cheers, Frank

String freeze for Geany 1.33
by Frank Lanitz 13 Feb '18

13 Feb '18

Dear translators and friends of Geany, Let's make it short: As Geany 1.33 will be released soon, we got a string freeze which is a good point to start updating translation. In preparation I've just updated po-files for Geany core project inside github repositories and asking you whether you could update translations, review them or maybe add new languages. I'd be very happy if you could send a patch, a pull request or single file with translation to either the geany-i18n mailing list or direct to me within the next two weeks so we can include it to the next release. Deadline will be 2018-02-24 24:00h CET. To get most recent files you could just clone the repositories from Geany: https://github.com/geany/geany This can be done e.g. with git clone https://github.com/geany/geany.git You can find daily updated po files at http://i18n.geany.org too, which includes some statistics. If your language was translated by two or more in past, please double check directly with them or by pinging me, so we don't need to translate same things two or three times. Also please feel to ping me for every question or if you like to start a new translation for an unsupported language. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ping me directly via IRC: #geany @freenode Jabber/XMPP: frlan(a)jabber.ccc.de or via Mail: look above or some of the mailing lists. Thanks and happy translating Frank

How to control the format of a word followed by a single quote character
by Ethan Beyak 10 Feb '18

10 Feb '18

I'm a new Geany user. First, thanks all developers for your hard work on a great program. The editor is amazing! My question is about what Geany automatically does when a single quote character (') is placed in front of a word and if its possible to control that behavior. I ask because one language I'm currently developing in is Maxima and the single quote is an operator (prevents evaluation). For my colorscheme=zenburn.conf and lexer_filetype=C, when I type a single quote before a word, it italicizes the rest of the current line, and changes all colors to a light red (overwriting any colors per primary and secondary keywords I have defined in my filetypes.Maxima.conf) Are there any settings / knobs I can turn to modify this behavior, such as lexer_properties or settings, in the filetypes.*.conf file? Preferably, I'd like to avoid writing my own lexer file to make this small change; but if its necessary, I'd appreciate some advice on how and where to make that change in the src. Thanks! Ethan

[RFC]: Does anyone use the Devhelp plugin?
by Matthew Brush 03 Feb '18

03 Feb '18

Hi, I'm the author of the Devhelp plugin which allows viewing documentation in Devhelp format right within Geany as well as opening manpages. It relies on a library version that is not supported anymore (older libdevhelp), as well as it uses an outdated version of the WebKit library for GTK+. It needs a fair bit of updating to bring it to using supported libraries and supporting GTK+ 3. As I don't personally use this plugin anymore, I wanted to see if there are others who do, or who might be interested in becoming the maintainer (and updating the code). If nobody's using the plugin and nobody's interested in maintaining it, perhaps we should remove it from the Geany-Plugins project. Please tell me what you think. I'll wait a month or two at least, and if I don't hear anyone saying they use it, I will likely make a pull request to remove it from the Geany-Plugins project. If anyone is using it, it might give me motivation to update it instead of removing it. Regards, Matthew Brush

Re: [Geany-Users] Users Digest, Vol 148, Issue 3
by Muddleglum Smith 03 Feb '18

@Lex Trotman >Geany only supports files as one language, it can't handle mixed >languages like PHP in HTML so you can only have one comment form >per filetype. I'm not sure about this. If I have a different language embedded, I just change the language in the menu (Document | Set Filetype) and the ctrl-E works just fine. Am I missing something? (note that I don't use php, so I haven't tested that) I agree that a multiline comment in addition to line comments would be kind of useful but that's a different can of worms. I'll probably stick to snippets to keep my worms under control.
