OK, thanks,  I see now.

The geany.exe  installed from geany-0.12pre_nogtk_setup.exe is working
in Win98 but only if  I  start it from the msys/mingw terminal (rxvt).

But if I try to launch from desktop or command.com prompt it hangs for a
few seconds and then crashes with an access violation. I tried running it
under gdb from command.com but it looks like the stack gets badly
smashed so I doubt that this info is of any use, but here it is...

It could be just something with my system, so I wouldn't worry
too much unless somebody else reports similar problems.

( gotta love M$  :-)
