Hello, I am new to Geany and i am learning how to use its features according to its manual. I got a bit stuck right here http://www.geany.org/manual/#sending-text-through-custom-commands . While i am trying to add a new custom command through Edit->Send Selection to->Set Custom Commands menu, when i "OK", the command doesn't show up. It's as it never gets saved or sth. What am i doing wrong? + Some examples on where this feature should be used would be much appreciated.
Lex thank you for your quick response. Can you present an example? As I don't understand exactly what you mean. Thank you in advance.
Hi,
- Open Set Custom Commands dialog
- Click Add button
- Type command name where the cursor is
- Press Enter (required to save the command)
- Click on same row under Label column
- Type a name/label for the command
- Press Enter (required to save the label)
- Click OK button
To use: Press <Ctrl>1-9 (depending which number you added) Or use Edit->Format->Send Selection To->Your New Command Or right-click on editor area for context menu, same as above

I am sorry if i am being a pain guys. Matthew's adivce was great I was able to add any commands i wished. The thing is doesn't work properly, meaning the selection never gets send to the command. eg: I select Documents and I send it to ls. Instead of listing the Documents directory, it lists the current directory, ~ in this case. I even tried full path. It doesn't work for grep command either. What am I doing wrong this time? I appreciate your time Kostas Dimakis
