If the right options were disabled/enabled during use, I don't see how it would complicate anything for the user. Though it would clutter the dialog box a bit.
Anyhow, I still prefer the idea of geany simply automatically checking the "Case sensitive" box when the user checks the "Use regular expressions" box -- no automatic unchecking involved. (Actually, I just noticed, this is similar to how NEdit does it, though NEdit seems to do something a little more complicated which I'm not sure I understand.)
Sorry, I think such a complicated dialog would more confuse than help.
Could be. But I did want to note in the earlier message how the current default of case-insensitive regexes was possibly disorienting to users (since it was to me).
