   Good morning Enrico!  Thanks for that, that's very helpful -

 I've started Geany from the console (as suggested) and this is the 
output I get -

*** Start of output ***
$ geany -d

***  End of output ***

 Just a note - there is a double-slash just before "filetypes.haskell" 
above - I wonder if that should be a single-slash? 

Anyway, I went into /usr/local/share/gean and there wasn't a 
filetypes.haskell file there.  So, that might be the problem.
Thanks again - bye for now -
