<p>The TagManager format is not really meant to be used directly (hence the lack of docs), it's meant to be generated by Geany itself using the <code>-g</code> option. If you're really interested, you can find the code that reads and writes this format in <a href="https://github.com/geany/geany/blob/9c91c287803ae05ce0f2aacd605564301e0ef4aa/src/tagmanager/tm_source_file.c">tm_source_file.c</a>.</p>
<p>I believe Geany can also load Ctags format, written by tools like <a href="https://github.com/universal-ctags/ctags">universal-ctags</a> as well, if you need something more advanced than pipe format, without reverse-engineering TM format.</p>
