I would like to configure a custom build menu for all my projects.
According to my reading of the Build menu configuration section in the Geany manual:
See also https://wiki.geany.org/howtos/configurebuildmenu
I should add a [build-menu] section to all the filetypes files for my projects. The relevant files are EXT = { .h, .c, .cpp, .makefile }, so I have added a [build-menu] section to the files ~/.config/geany/filedefs/filetypes.EXT
EXT has to be a built in **filetype** name not an extension, thats why the files are called "filetypes.xxx" :)
The mapping from extension to filetype is in "filetype_extensions.conf" and it maps .c to C, and .h and .cpp to C++.
But for project specific settings see the wiki above.
However the build menu produced is the default.
I have also tried adding a [build-menu] section to geany.conf without success.
Unless you are doing something really special you should use the GUI not edit the config files directly.
I have so far avoided editing the files in usr/share/geany/filedefs
Correct.
Cheers Lex
Am I missing some settings?
Many thanks,
Geoff
