I'm watching the file on my local machine. The "/run/user/1000/gvfs/sftp:host= ... somefile.py" file. Should I try it on the file on the remote machine? I thought it only mattered what Geany saw on the local machine. >> When the >> warning comes up in Geany and I pick "relead", then inotify registers >> three actions: "OPEN", "ACCESS", and "CLOSE_NOWRITE,CLOSE". > > Looks right for reload, it just reads the file after all, but it > doesn't show the stat call. > >> >> watch is rather annoying because it doesn't give an ongoing log of >> changes.

Yeah... The only issue is Geany is supposed to be a tool to help me do my work... not a tool to help create new work for me. ;) I'll see if I can find time to do this, but it doesn't look promising. I also have zero familiarity with the code-base so I'd probably take me longer than I'd like to figure out where to put those printf statements. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/users
