[Geany-Devel] Plugins

[Steven Blatnick]

I've written some plugins that I use daily for similar purposes, but 
unfortunately I still have to update them to work with the latest geany 
(pull requests welcome ;-)

I have a similar quick-opener 
<https://github.com/sblatnick/geany-plugins/blob/master/quick-opener/src/quick-opener.c> 
plugin, which takes 2 shortcuts, one to quickly open from the current 
project tree, and another for a custom path:


To navigate within a file, I use an case-insensitive search I call 
quick-search 
<https://github.com/sblatnick/geany-plugins/blob/master/quick-search/src/quick-search.c> 
that also highlights all matches as you type and allows keyboard 
shortcuts to navigate quickly from match to match.  The search box 
overlays the top left corner of the text field, so it doesn't take up 
any additional space like the toolbar does:

I'd really like to see our plugins in geany-plugins, but I just haven't 
gotten around to updating the plugins recently and getting them 
integrated with the geany-plugins build system.  (The biggest problem 
with my plugins is updating function calls that call functions that have 
been restricted as not part of the plugin APIs.)

I hope this helps,

Steve
