[Geany-devel] Sage on geany

[Jonathan Daily]

I use a number of mathematical  scripting languages in my line of work
and geany has become my editor of choice.
The built-in support for R is great, even if the tag parser only picks
up functions (this is R's "fault" mostly for having multiple
assignment operators)

Another language I use, though, is Sage [1]. Sage is, in essence, a
huge number of open source mathematical libraries linked with a bunch
of custom code to make them all interact intuitively all built on the
python interpreter. While adding .sage to the python extensions worked
for a while, I wanted to have run, compile, and context commands for
sage as well as the builtin functions highlighted, and I wrote a
filetypes definition. If anyone else uses sage, this should do the
trick for highlighting, running, and compiling (AKA conversion to
python code). The context command pulls up Sage's help documentation.

Also attached is a geanydoc.conf with two entries: one for Sage, and
one for R. Both pull the builtin help documentation to a buffered tab.

Any interest in this?
