That's a really rude response...

This doesn't seem all that unreasonable. The Tree Browser already has "Create new file", "Delete" and "Rename". So you can open a file, copy the contents, create a new file, and paste the contents. Why is having a single content menu shortcut for that so terrible?

No.  Its called the file manager, and comes with your operating system.

[Disclaimer: its one of my pet peeves that people expect us to waste
time duplicating system functions, others disagree, YMMV]

PS Such file management operations made sense as part of refactoring
functions in tightly integrated IDEs like Eclipse which managed the
build.  But Geany is a lightweight IDE and is not integrated to that
extent.
