Hello,
I am trying to add tags to Geany, and tried learning how to do this through the manuals. However I still have not been able to get this to work.
I have a .msg file (like a text file) with thousands and thousands of lines in it. I would like to set some tags... e.g. "SECTION 1", so when I click on the "SECTION 1" tab it will take me to that section of the .msg file that I am viewing in Geany. I tried to make my own tag file (.tags) and load it through Tools -> load tags. However, the "Symbols"/"Tags" section remains empty.
I would really appreciate some help and a simple example of how this can be done if possible, thanks.
The documented tag file format (pipe format) doesn't store the line number so it won't let you go to the line anyway. The undocumented tagmanager format does, but it is intended to be internal only and isn't documented.
As to why it doesn't work, did you format the filename right and I'm not sure if it supports spaces in symbol names.
Cheers Lex
