this is the installation directory which might get deleted/overwritten
when installing new versions of Geany.

However, putting tags files in Geany's configuration directory works
perfectly on Windows.

The following log entries are from my Windows 7 box:

13:24:01: Geany INFO		: Loaded C:\Users\enrico\AppData
\Roaming\geany\tags \geany-api-0.18.c.tags (C), 138 tag(s). 
13:24:01: Geany INFO		: Loaded C:\Users\enrico\AppData
\Roaming\geany\tags \gtk218.c.tags (C), 22343 tag(s).

This is the default configuration directory for Geany on Windows 7. On
older Windows versions it differs but that is Windows dependent.

Regards,
Enrico
