[Geany] sort tabs
Hi Is it possible to have the file tabs ordered alphabetically? I'm still struggling to find a good way to manage open files, the documents sidebar is nice but can't be onscreen at the same time as the symbols sidebar. The file tabs rapidly fill up the available space, moving them to the side fixes that, but once you have a couple of dozen finding any particular one is hard.

[Geany] option to save tabs regularly
Is there an option somewhere to have Geany save the list of open files intermittently instead of just on exit. I don't usually exit Geany, I start it on boot and it runs until the machine crashes or windows decides it needs to reboot. So it would be nice if it saved the tabs regularly so I could have them back after a crash. G ___ Geany mailing list Geany@uvena.de https://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany
[Geany] Multiple Sidebars
Hi Is there a way to have the symbols and documents sidebars visible at the same time? I want this because I find the documents sidebar more effective than the window tabs when there are more than a half dozen files open, but I also use the symbols sidebar heavily.

Re: [Geany] quick find behavior
I'm assuming that by quick search box you mean the toolbar search entry? yes The keybinding focus-switch to search bar (default f7) works pretty close to the way you describe. It does the focus and select bit, but it doesn't do the find next part. Is there a way to bind two things to one keyboard shortcut? Because binding find next and switch to search bar to ctrl-g would get me the chrome behavior.

I re-define ctrlf to use that since its way less disruptive than the search dialog. Cheers Lex This is not as disruptive as it might sound as you can always dismiss the quick search box and move focus to the search result by hitting escape. Having played around with the keybindings a bit I'm also interested in something that does all that and copies the current text selection to the quick search box. Are there any existing options for anything like this? If it matters any I currently have 1.22 on win7.

[Geany] tab completion
Is there a way to get the completion dialog to work like tab completion in the shell? I've looked around for a keybinding or a configuration option but haven't found one. The reason I'm asking is that we have a lot of C code with namespacing prefixes, for example the file I'm currently looking at has a couple of dozen function that start with network_, so what I'd like to be able to do is type net hit tab to get it to complete out to network_ then type ac by which stage the only valid completion is network_accept which I can get by hitting tab again. ___ Geany mailing list Geany@uvena.de http://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany
Re: [Geany] file changed notifications
Sorry I wasn't clear enough, my complaint isn't that the dialog is modal on the file, that is fine, my complaint is that it is modal on the entire editor, once that dialog comes up I can't do anything else until I've figured out why that file changed and what I want to do about it. I can't even close the file, let alone edit some other file. You are right about the firefox save passwords dialog being easy to miss, the gedit file changed notification is about 4x as big, has a big exclamation mark on it and prevents editing of the file until you deal with it. However you can still use the rest of the editor, you can switch to other tabs and use them as normal and you can close the current tab.

I would prefer a system like gedits, I couldn't find a screenshot of this but for those without access to gedit it is comparable to the handling of popups and passwords in newer versions of firefox. So far, the count is 2 vs 1 votes :). I totally don't like those, whatever it is called, bars. At least not for important things and especially not when user input is needed (reload? yes/no). I saw these things only once or twice in Gedit but I know them from Firefox and it's really annoying. I remember the first few times I just didn't realise them at all and wondered why Firefox isn't asking anymore whether I want to save the entered password. Such bars may be ok for informational messages or notices but definitely not for warnings or questions with user feedback. In case of the 'Do you want to reload' dialog when a file has changed, this should be modal as it doesn't make much sense when you already have typed 5 other lines in the file and then you notice 'oh, there is a box asking me to reload the file'. I personally would consider using another software in such a case. The main intention of this dialog is not to annoy users (although during the last days it actually did, sorry :D) but the dialog should warn users and prevent possible data loss by overwriting external changes.

Re: [Geany] feature suggestion: jump
In a fullscreen window the symbols list fits about 50 items on screen. I'm not sure how things are in other domains, but I'm an embedded C programmer by trade and it's not at all uncommon to see files with a couple of hundred symbols in them. I often find myself hunting up and down the list thinking there is a function for this, what was it called?? it had event in it's name... On my previous editor I hacked the symbol list plugin I was using to have a filter at the bottom of which worked ok, but the interface was never as easy to work with as the jump in xmms.
