[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Feature request: Document sidebar, right-click on folder to create new file (#2129)

[Víctor Eduardo Diex Díaz Urbaneja]

> Actually, creating a new file at given directory would be a great feature. It is actually quite annoying to save any new file in a project with deep and complex directory structure (I look at you Java! ). Just hitting Ctrl+N and Ctrl+S opens the file save dialog in project base root. Many times, I'd just like to create a "sibling" for the file I currently work on. It would be very handy if it could be done directly.

Howdy, I have written a plugin in lua for this reason
