Hey,
When working with R files, in order to use "Send selection to terminal" one would want to append a newline to the selection. While this can often be done manually in the written code, it can get awkward to do so when in need to execute only one line from the middle of a paragraph.
Well, I think it's a great feature that line breaks are not added magically. This could do much harm if one selects something like "rm -rf ~" (not the most originally example but still). I really think if the user really wants to execute this selection, he/she should either include the line break or hit Enter/Return manually in the terminal. Automatically executing commands is always risky.
Forgot to mention: Geany actually removes the last trailing \n from the selection to explicitly try to prevent the requested behaviour and I still think this is good and should be kept.
