<p>I'm using following commands:</p>
<pre><code>set file=foobar.txt

if not exist "%file%" (
        type nul >> %file%
)

start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Geany\bin\geany.exe" "%file%"
</code></pre>
<p>If I use <code>File->New</code> no empty file will be created, but one containing the configured line ending. Maybe that is the workaround ("hack") Geany actually is using to set the default.</p>
