I wonder if anyone knows when Geany Portable might be upgraded from 0.19 to 0.20?

Honoured? Wow! I thought you might be a little annoyed.
Just do it whenever you have time. I just wanted to know if it was on its way or whether perhaps I might learn how to produce it.
Thanks for packaging Geany in this format because I find it very useful. I use Geany Portable at work on Windows XP and also use Geany (packaged by my Linux distro) at home.
Nope, I'm actually working on it right now. I just changed some of the GTK handling, so I need to test it in a virtual machine before I release it for preliminary testing by the community.

I'll test the prerelease of Geany Portable 0.20 at work tomorrow. How should I give feedback?
Thanks again for working on this because having an 'edition' of Geany which is portable on Windows is just sooo useful.
Blog comments should be open, or you can just send something through the mailing list I suppose :-)

I just downloaded the PAF file via the link. I don't know what might be preventing you from downloading it successfully.

Or I could read your blog post which states clearly where feedback is to be provided. :( Sorry about that.
Oliver,
I just installed your prerelease of Geany Portable 0.20 and I already have a problem. I am running it on Windows XP SP3 and GP doesn't have the selected Windows XP styling applied to the it but instead appears in the horrible default grey theme for GTK on Windows.
I'l keep on testing to see if I find anything else.
Did you do a update, or install in another folder? If its the later, I've figured out what went wrong, I'll be patching it later tonight. Otherwise, I upgraded my copy of Geany Portable before I released it and it works as I expected. If you can tell me the details of how you had Geany Portable setup, I'd appreciate it.

Oliver,
I installed the prerelease into a new folder, after renaming my existing Geany Portable folder. I did this because I wanted to make sure that I coud revert to the working Geany Portable installation. :)
OK - I just reinstalled the prerelease into the same folder and, as you expected, the GTK styling worked as expected. To be clear, Geany Portable 0.20 had the active Windows XP theme applied to all elements.
Thanks.

Hi Russell,
Check the GTK version, some versions (sorry I am not clear in my own mind which ones but I think any between 2.16 and 2.22 fail) don't do themes on Windows.

Lex,
As I have reported earlier to Oliver, with the new release installed into the same folder as the previous release, the Windows theme is applied correctly to Geany Portable 0.20. The version of GTK distributed with Geany Portable 0.20 looks to be 2.16.0.

Ok, AFAICT 2.16 is the last to work until 2.22, I guess Russell just needs to keep the old one for now.

Well since Geany still supports 2.8 I guess it won't need to be upgraded for a "while" yet.

Updates are always good to get such boring things like bugfixes :).
Though, the Windows builds still ship with GTK 2.16 as newer versions had some problems when the client-side window stuff landed in GTK 2.18, IIRC. Maybe there were some other reasons for sticking with 2.16 I don't remember right now. Also not sure whether it'd be better with 2.22.
http://www.gtk.org/download-windows.html still states: "GTK+ 2.16 is an old but in some sense more reliable branch. 2.22 is the current maintained version. Choose the one which works better for you."
IIRC some time ago there was clear note to stick with 2.16 on Windows. Now it sounds more relaxed. So if I have time and playing with Windows next time, I might try updating to GTK 2.22.
Also, if anyone else wants this do and report any feedback, feel welcome to do so!

Hey Enrico,
I don't have a windows dev system so I can't try it but I checked out the (in)famous GTK windows theming bug discussion (with Tor having hissy fits :-) and it looks like the problem was identified and fixed for 2.22 so its worth a try.
Cheers Lex

I have downloaded and installed Geany Portable 0.20 Prerelease 2 and the GTK themeing worked as expected - i.e. it had the active Windows XP theme. I haven't yet tested much more but will report anything I find.
