Geany has many places where a short function then calls
another short function which calls another short function, none of

efficient and very hard to follow and understand as a whole, but
others find it easier to think only in terms of each little piece.
YMMV
Here may be somewhere where we disagree fundamentally, because:
* long functions cause bugs
* too many variables in one place cause bugs
I'm sure there are statisics to back this up, it's well known in code
analysis/reliability circles.
Breaking up logical tasks into functions is crucial to writing
maintainable code, functions *are not just about code reuse*.
