Thanks, applied.

Check the manual - it should be called something like std.vhdl.tags and
placed in /usr/share/geany/tags or ~/.config/geany/tags.

It sounds like you want a new filetype for Verilog as it seems this is
quite different from VHDL. See the HACKING file for how to add a
filetype. There is a Verilog tag parser in the ctags project you could
adapt and a lexer for highlighting in the Scintilla project src
directory.
