There must be something else wrong.
If I use the tags file and the custom filetype you provided here, I can successfully load the tags: 13:29:31.561147: Geany INFO : Loaded /tmp/test.txt.tags (txt), 2 symbol(s).
Maybe the whole output of Help->Debug Messages could give a hint.

I've created a custom filetype named "txt" and saved your posted tags file and then I could load it successfully. So, I assume there is something wrong with your configuration. Could you post your filetype configuration for "txt"? Regards, Enrico On 14.10.21 22:09, Rue Sixteen wrote: > Hi Enrico > > I do.
