My version of Geany doesn't have the little underlined letters in menu names and menu items, so that I can see which Alt keys access which GUI menus and menu items. Is there an option in Geany to have or not have those little underlines present? Or would that interfere with other Geany keyboard shortcuts?

Its nothing Geany does, its GTK. With recent GTK versions the underscores don't appear until you press `alt`

Ah! I didn't notice! You've got to *hold* the Alt key, and then the underscores show up. Excellent. Thanks!
