[Geany] [Geany 0.8svn win32] wishlist

Hi,

I've downloaded and installed yesterday's Geany win32 build. Here are 
some remarks :

[win32 specific]
* there is no windows console tab (cmd.exe on this XP install), it would 
be nice to have one (like on UNIX systems)
* there is no "run" button. I do Python scripting, using ActiveState's 
python install, so I guess Geany could be made to determine how to run 
the script (python.exe is in PATH) and show the "run" button, I suppose.

[general issues / comments]
* "replace tabs by space" [should be : "replace tabs by spaces" IMHO] 
works better, since it does not go to file's start each time it is run
* if editing perl or python [detecting a .py or .pl script loaded, 
maybe...] code, having another tab (next to the console, scribble, 
status tabs) with an interpreter running inside (to type commands in) 
would be extra nice, along with a "reset" button to restart that 
interpreter.


Thanks for this already excellent tool.

François
