Hi,
Sorry to the empty post. It was send accidentally.
I would just to know how you configure geany to enable vte support? In linux or Mac OS X.
I am compiling in Mac OS X 10.5.6. It compiles but no terminal vte. I compiled and installed vte separately. Now, how do I configure to enable vte support. Any instruction how to do this, including how to create dynamic library vte.dylib in Mac OS X.
Macports geany is not working for my installation.
Thank you in advance.
Regards, Noli
I think it would be
./configure --enable-vte
It is assuming the vte package is properly installed and it has shared library i.e. libvte.dylib in Mac OS X.

VTE is enabled by default, generally there is no need to explicitly enable it. It's mainly intended for users who want to build a really light Geany to disable it.

No, the configure script doesn't check whether the VTE library is installed or anything. It really is just the switch which can disable VTE support.
So, compiling Geany normally, VTE is enabled, independently whether the VTE package is actually installed or not.
At runtime, Geany looks for libvte.so (on Linux and other Unix-like systems) and if it finds the file, it loads the library. If it doesn't find the file, the VTE is disabled. You can check Help->Debug Messages to look for error messages.
Though, I don't have an idea about how to build libvte on MacOSX. Maybe better ask on a MacOSX list or libvte related list/forum for more information.
As said, if Geany can find the library, it will be loaded. You can also specify the path to the library file with the --vte-lib command line option.
