I believe i am using the Geany GTK 3.0 version (latest as of a few days ago) I am trying to set the colors of the editor widgets and everything i read tells me to modify the gtkrc file but i cannot find where that file is on linux. Can anyone tell me where i might find this file in linux? Thank you all very much for your help

The version of GTK is a build time setting for all released Geany versions, but the latest git is indeed GTK3 only.
To tell the version of GTK see a message near the top of Help->Debug Messages.
If it is GTK3 (likely) then it no longer uses gtkrc files, it now uses GTK CSS. There are some in $PREFIX/share/geany and you can put your own geany.css in your config directory to override whatever you need to.

sorry, I replied incorrectly in the other email. My question is; Is there any documentation for the css tags and values for the geany widgets? Thanks

Start geany like this:
GTK_DEBUG=interactive geany
You will get an additional window with all the info (and testing playground) you need.

Just be aware that any widget names and organisation not documented are not guaranteed to be stable. (although they havn't changed for ages)
