Hi,
we are happy to announce a new release of Geany!
For a comprehensive list of changes in Geany 0.18, please see http://www.geany.org/Documentation/ReleaseNotes. A very detailed and complete list of changes can be found in the ChangeLog, included in the source packages as well as in the Windows binary files.
Some of the highlights:
* Implement a graphical toolbar editor. * Add 'Replace' toolbar button * Implement Most-Recently-Used document switching when pressing 'Switch to last used document' keybinding (Ctrl-Tab). * Add 'Reflow lines/block' keybinding, (Ctrl-J). * Support 'tab indents, space aligns' style when indenting. * Add 'Autocomplete all words in document' pref; also used when forcing autocompletion and there's no symbol names to show. * Reload color schemes via Tools menu. * Implement named styles support for filetypes.* using a filetypes.common [named_styles] section; used as "style=named_style,bold". (See the manual for details). * Allow indentation of wrapped lines (see style 'line_wrap_indent'). * Add Markdown filetype (thanks to Jon Strait). * Minor improvements for filetypes: Fortran, Haxe, HTML, Lua, Matlab, Pascal, Python, Tcl * Added translations: lb, sl, pt_PT * Updated translations: ca, cs, de, en_GB, fi, fr, ja, pt_BR, ru, tr
We want to thank all translators who have updated their translations in this release as well as all people who contributed to this release with patches, feedback, bug reports and so on. Thank you!
All downloads can be found on http://download.geany.org.
From this release on, the release files are not available through the
Sourceforge.net mirrors anymore. Please use http://download.geany.org as the URL.
Happy coding, Enrico
Great!
Yet somehow, I lost .cpp and .c code colouring after install. python and .sh seem to work though. I tried everything I could think of: wildly moving existing config files around and in the end deleting everything except the fresh install, letting it write a new.config/geany, but no luck. Any ideas?
Best, Matt
Hi Matt,
Not sure that I can help you, I did two installs today ona fairly modern Linux to default location and to a special prefix both with no problems.
What system are you installing on, default install or special location and any other info that the guys might find useful to help you.
Cheers Lex

Hi Lex, thanks. Right, I forgot that. I was on Fedora 10 Cambridge with custom prefix.
However, I think I found the issue: I was unaware that our admin had installed a system wide 0.17, and somehow conflicts seem to have come from that, i.e. while I was tracking down the error before, I must have called the system wide geany without noticing instead of the fresh 018, which then did not write the new config dirs but something else.
Dont know if that sounds likely, but again wiping everything, reinstalling, and incrementally restoring my config seems to work.
Thanks, and best, Matt

Although I am using SVN now all the time, it's great :-) When 1.0 :-)?

Hmmm, don't know, I've been running two versions of Geany for a while, 0.17 in the system dirs and SVN in a home directory.. I haven't had any problems with Geany itself, even with two versions running at once which is a bit risky since they share config files, but thats development ;-)
Plugins won't work in non-standard locations if a system Geany exists.

Hm, I think I did have plugins in non-standard locations, and the gdb one I definitively used successfully. But well, I'm happy it works now.

They should. Can you describe more detailed what's not working here?

Hi Frank,
The problem has already been passed to Chow to look at and discussed in this ML, IIRC the problem was that the prefix for the geany directories was always taken from pkg-config and not from the --prefix specified to the plugins configure. So plugins always prefer the system installed version of Geany. i havn't heard of a solution yet.
Symptoms are always trying to write system directories even if I tell the plugins to use a specific prefix.
Cheers Lex

Ah ok. I'm using waf so I don't recognized this topic ;)
Thanks, Frank
