<p>And yes I <em>totally</em> agree with you about needing to compile your own Glade 3.8.5 or 3.8.6, I won't either, but until support for GTK2 is removed from Geany, the Glade version can't be advanced to one thats available in repositories.</p>
<p>But since the functionality is available in the "autoclose" plugin there may not be much incentive to add this, but lets see if anybody tests it and reports its working.</p>
