[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Removal of Recent Files and Projects from geany.conf (#1763)

[Riccardo Campisano]

I'm doing something like @elextr suggestion (ugly I know):

`rm -rf ~/.cache/geany_config; cp -L -r ~/.config/geany/ ~/.cache/geany_config; geany -c ~/.cache/geany_config; rm -rf ~/.cache/geany_config`

Maybe there are other configs statements to 'extract', like geometry, for the scope of put geany.conf in a VSC. In addiction, the geany.conf file is generated at first start with a lot of default configs. I did a try removing them and keep just what I did change, but the editor will put them again.

I think that can be a useful feature to have a way to add just a subset of instructions/configs in a file to enhance/customize the behavior of geany, like themes or external commands. Maybe a better way to do so can be the use of something like a geany.d folder with custom files to be read when exist, and that can overwrite the configs in geany.conf... What do you think?
