I just tried installed both Geany an GP snapshots on a Window 7 VM, and
it seems mostly good :)

Not sure if it's my VM, but it seems slightly slow to startup or show
plugin list.  Might be related to an antivirus or something too.


Some issues:

# Geany

Suffers from unfixed
https://github.com/geany/geany/commit/6818ba6baf8bef4afe3b88b36b9eb2b5a8c2fcc9
-- just mentioning here so testers can know it's known and fixed in the
source.

# GP installer:

* The list of dependencies in the message for the GP option
"Dependencies" is outdated.

# GP plugins

* Spellcheck seems to miss all dictionaries, making it not very useful
(and print an error when loaded)

* WebHelper somewhat works, but the inspector doesn't, complains about
missing resource:

> Unable to load page
>
> Problem occurred while loading the URL
resource:///org/webkitgtk/inspector/UserInterface/Main.html
>
> La resource dans « /\org\webkitgtk\inspector\UserInterface\Main.html »
n'existe pas
>
> Try again

I also have to click the inspector button twice, but that might be a
WebKitGTK issue not specific to Windows.

* GeniusPaste doesn't fine its config files under Windows (an issue I
expected might happen, will try to figure out a fix).


Will keep on searching for problems, but that's all for the moment :)

Cheers,
Colomban
