Hello, I am new to Geany. I used SciTE until now but Geany is much more powerful. But there is a strange thing : when running a program, SciTE sends the message from the program (echo, print_r and errors) in the message window below the code. This does not happen in Geany, all this stuff is displayed only on the black sytem window and lost when you close it. SciTE also had a nice feature : double clicking on an error message would lead you directly to the right line. Geany has such a feature for the results of "find in files". So I cannot beleive that it does not do the same thing for the PHP messages and I think I have missed something. Does anyone knows what I have to do to get the messages from PHP in the message window of Geany ? Thanks a lot and sorry if it was a stupid question.

The messages tab is currently only used for find usage/find in files.
You might be able to do it by setting the Compile command in the 'Build->Set Includes & Arguments' to: php "%f"
Then when running Build->Compile, Geany will pipe output from PHP back to the Compiler window. If the runtime PHP messages are like the PHP compile messages, Geany will highlight them and you can click on them. If not you could try using a filetype error regex, check the manual for details.
