It broke it up into 13 files. I got the first 2 opened by Geany.
After that, it refused to open any others.
If Geany encounters a character encoding error, such as an invalid byte combo in a given file it won't load it. From that interface it looks like nothing happened. Maybe the window blinks slightly. The thinking is to avoid opening binary files I believe.
If a file is not a supported encoding or contains a NUL it won't open, but you get a message in the status tab and status bar, and likely lots of trying/failing messages in the `Help->Debug messages` for encodings Geany tried. SO it should be pretty obvious if that happened.
Binaries often contain NULs (0 value bytes) which is why they won't open, its not anti-binary per say.

Sounds like what might be happening here.
Sort of annoying now that you mention it, but been that way so long I got used to it.
