Let's say I'm working in /var/www/d6/sites/all/modules/my_module and I need a new, empty file there: 'my_module.inc' Geany's default dir is set to '/var/www'. To create a new file in the 'my_module' dir you now have to: 1) Create a new file (ctrl-n) 2) Save the new file (ctrl-s) 3) Open 'd6' 4) Open 'sites' 5) Open 'all' 6) Open 'modules' 7) Open 'my_module' 8) Give the new file a name 9) Save the file If the file browser would support creating new files: 1) Right click in the filebrowser 2) Select 'new file' (or maybe even 'new folder'?) 3) Give the new file a name 4) Done It just seems logical to be able to do it in the file browser, but maybe I'm alone in that... > The toolbar buttons are not that far away and adding them to the > filebrowser plugin would cause that we expose this all to the plugin > API.

I don't think about technical changes, since I don't know any C.
