Hi
I just installed geany 1.22 on a windows 7 laptop and I am starting into rails. So I am tinkering with ruby files which I haven't done before.
The thing is geany isn't indenting my files.
I created a file test.rb and just typed a multi array and printed it to output as a test.
However I got no indenting so it looks like.
my_array = [[1,0],[2,1],[3,2]]
my_array.each do |x| x.each do |y| puts y end end
when it should look like.
my_array = [[1,0],[2,1],[3,2]]
my_array.each do |x| x.each do |y| puts y end end
Not sure if I have missed something Ruby specific
Hi,
Well, sort of, or rather Geany has missed something, Ruby specific support for indenting :)
Geany autoindent is almost language independent, it knows how to:
- go to the same indent as last line
- indent and unindent on { and }
- as a special case only, indent on : in Python
None of these will work for Ruby IIUC.
What it needs is for someone to specify the algorithm, and to provide a plugin that implements it (such language specific stuff shouldn't be in core)
I disagree.
This is something that ought to be in the core, really. Language support is a core feature of Geany (and any IDE). It should work out of the box and not reside in disabled-by-default extensions. Especially if python can have its special case in the core.
What else, if not language support, belongs to the core? And since when is handling/enabling indentation a plugin-thing?
Best regards.
