[Geany-Users] Tag file loading fails.

[Enrico Tröger]

There must be something else wrong.

If I use the tags file and the custom filetype you provided here, I can 
successfully load the tags:
13:29:31.561147: Geany INFO		: Loaded /tmp/test.txt.tags (txt), 2 symbol(s).

Maybe the whole output of Help->Debug Messages could give a hint.

Regards,
Enrico
