+There are two ways of creating new projects, either by using
+*Project->New* menu item or by using *Project->New from Folder* menu
+item.
+
+New
+    This method is more suitable for creating new, empty projects from
+    scratch at the default location without having any existing sources.
+
+    To create a new project, fill in the *Name* field. By default this
+    will setup a new project file ``~/projects/name/name.geany``.
+
+    The Base path text field is setup to use ``~/projects/name``. This
+    can safely be set to any existing path -- it will not touch the file
+    structure contained in it.

But it will add name.geany file there.
