>Ok, if you are https://geany.org/manual/#source-compilation describes how to compile from source (this is for Geany but for Geany-Plugins the steps are pretty much the same).

In the description that you mentioned, three commands need to be typed in the terminal:
```
$ ./configure
$ make
% make install
```

Where is Geany in the command lines?
Do I have to type also the %-symbol?
What will happen to the present Geany I use?
What will happen to my present settings in Geany?
Do I need to unzip first the code after the download on https://github.com/geany/geany?

I didn't know that it was possible to look inside the code. Oh, that's cool!

I visited both web-pages:
- SpellCheck: Rename "Toggle spell check" setting, and
- SpellCheck: Sync toggle via keybinding and button

I checked the first webpage, because on the second webpage I have no idea what the code means.

I would not write it "Run Spell Check Once", because I don't like when, after the first word, words start with a big letter. Then I get a little bit confused, because I ask myself: Is there a special meaning behind that?
So I would call it "Run spell check once".

Personally I would prefer that even the first word starts with a small letter, because it is not a sentence, it is just an expression. So the best for me would be this:
"run spell check once"
"toggle spell check"
The problem is then that some users will ask themselves why in the Preferences, in Keybindings, some names of shortcut start with a big letter and some with a small letter, and why "Preferences" and "Keybindings" start with a big letter.

I don't understand why you use two different notations for one and the same thing:
228: Toggle Spell Check
333: Toggle spell check
