[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Add features for sorting editor tabs (#1144)

[konsolebox]

> IMHO compared to the prototype plugin by @codebrainz this is pretty big and intrusive

It's natural since this has features that it needs to keep up with: sort by pathname, manual sorting, and gradual automatic sorting.  Sorting by pathname itself is a large update since it has to adapt with Document List's way of sorting things, or else the resulting arrangement would be difficult to the user.

> so I would suggest looking at the plugin instead

Yes I don't mind.  I actually just want this to get done.

> you can leave this PR here in the meantime so we can compare them.

No problem.

> As for "sort based on" and "sort by", "sort by" is a very common expression in programming, so just use that.

Thanks.  I was also wanting to simplify it already.
