<p>Textadept (<a href="https://foicica.com/textadept/" rel="nofollow">https://foicica.com/textadept/</a>) has this feature and I believe it uses Scintilla. I am not a programmer, so I have no idea how search Textadepts's code and adapt the feature to Geany. But maybe someone with the skills can give it a try. This is the only feature I really miss in Geany and it would be great to have it.</p>
