Hi,
What exactly do "Navigate forward a location" and "Navigate back a location" do?
You are in file A and click on "Go to Tag Definition". Then Geany switches to the file(if open) where the current tag is defined. If you now easily get back to your start point, you "Navigate back a location". This works also for symbol list items. This feature was added by a patch by Dave Moore and it is especially useful when exploring foreign code where you usually jump between functions and declarations.
The docs mention a "navigation history". What does that mean?
I tried to describe it a bit in the docs(SVN r1864, [1]). But I'm not sure whether it sounds good and is well explained. Maybe someone wants to improve it ;-).
