**Problem** Whenever I create a new project, the `Set Build Commands` dialogue is populated with the standard Geany build commands. For example `Compile: g++ -Wall -c "%f"`.
All my projects use the same build tools, which are more elaborate than the standard ones. I use explicit `make` commands for compiling single files as well as building the entire project. Configuring the dialogue in exactly the same way for each new project is time-consuming. **Geany manual** The [Build menu configuration]( https://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html#id154) section in the manual seems to suggest that by placing a `[build-menu]` section in` filetypes.cpp`, then custom entries for the `Set Build Commands` dialogue can be configured to be the same for all new projects. However, this does not happen. **My Current Workaround** I have made a template for the `[build-menu]` section. When I create a new project, I copy the` [build-menu]` section to the `newproject.geany` file. **Request** It would be convenient if there was a way to use a template to populate the build commands dialogue at the point of project creation. **My System** ``` ~$ geany -V geany 1.29 (built on 2016-11-16 with GTK 2.24.31, GLib 2.50.2) ~$ uname -a Linux debian-deskside 4.9.0-8-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.110-3+deb9u5 (2018-09-30) x86_64 GNU/ ``` -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
