There is a space in the path. It could cause problems. Windows Command Prompt has no problem running `mcs`. But Geany is a Linux-first program that is only ported to Windows as an afterthought. - Or it's very likely that Geany has problems calling batch script.

Related to #3754. But it doesn't take many files to trigger. Sometimes, only two files.

I'm opening files from Windows Explorer with `Open with Geany`. I found that after a certain number of files are opened, it will launch new Geany instances.

The language is based on Go. I created `filetypes.Foo.conf` and set `Foo=*.foo;` in `filetype_extensions.conf`. Foo is indeed appeared on `Set Filetype` but syntax highlighting for the language Foo is simply not work. When you opened a file name with extension `.foo`, it's treated as `None` and even if you manually set the language to be `Foo` via `Set Filetype`, there is absolutely no syntax highlighting. Strangely enough, if I set the language to `Go` via `Set Filetype` then I have syntax highlighting. If I edit `filetype_extensions.conf` to add `.foo` to the list of extensions of `Go` source file, then `.foo` files will be treated as `Go` and have syntax highlighting, too. Of course, this syntax highlighting is for Go and the keywords specific to the language `Foo` is not highlighted.
