Hello,
new to geany and the list. I have 3 questions about the terminal:
Welcome!
-1- settings It does not take at startup the appearance settings: I need to go preferences and "apply".
Uh, what version of Geany and libvte are you using? I hoped we eliminated those kinds of bugs :(.
-2- length It seems the terminal has a very short capacity. Usually the output of my progs are truncated (I get only the end). Is there a way to set this parameter?
Check the setting "Scrollback Lines" in the preferences dialog, VTE tab. This defines the amount of lines which can be scrolled in the terminal.
-3- restart How to restart the terminal automatically on run -- so that hte terminal holds only the output of last run? Otherwise I have to restart it (with context menu) before each trial.
Hmm, the only solution I can think of is to change the Run command from: "./%e" to clear && "./%e"
(Above example is for filetype C, the idea is to simply prepend the Run command with 'clear &&'.) But this is not very nice and need to be done for every filetype you want to execute.
