Geany 0.16 (February 15, 2009)
Bug fixes:
- Fix indenting for Tabs & Spaces mode when inserting snippets.
-
Fix snippets and smart indent using too much indentation when the line contains whitespace after non-whitespace characters (#2215044).
-
Fix segfault when showing Find in Files dialog when no documents are open (#2228544).
-
Fix not switching to 2nd last used document when the last used document has been closed (#1945162).
General:
-
Group child tags by their parents in the symbol list for C-like filetypes, Python, Conf (thanks to Conrad Steenberg).
-
Use a tree for the Documents sidebar, grouped by path.
- Add 'Tools->Configuration Files' menu with items to open filetype_extensions.conf and ignore.tags. These files are also
reloaded automatically when saved.
-
Change configuration directory path to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/geany (most often this is ~/.config/geany).
-
Allow to specify files on the command line and from remote instances to be URIs (local and with GIO also remote URIs).
-
Increase minimum required GTK version to 2.8.
Prefs:
- Add Project Indentation prefs, which override the Editor Preferences dialog options. For new projects, these default to
the editor indent prefs.
-
Add an interface pref for whether to hide additional widgets when double-clicking on document notebook tabs (off by default).
-
Add a preference to invert all colours for syntax highlighting.
- Add a hidden preference "allow_always_save" to make the Save buttons and menu items always sensitive.
Interface:
-
Rework the toolbar: now all elements can be added/removed/reordered using a simple XML file.
-
Add new toolbar buttons for Cut, Copy, Paste, Delete, Preferences, Close All and Build (including a submenu for Make actions).
-
Add a progressbar widget to the statusbar to show progress for time consuming actions.
Editor:
- Make Ctrl-click go to matching brace if there's no current word.
- Make Shift+Mouse wheel scroll the editor view horizontally.
-
Make the 'Mark' button for Find highlight the results with rounded boxes instead of marking the whole line.
-
Add auto-closing of braces, brackets and quotes (Guillaume de Rorthais).
- Support multiple %cursor% wildcards in Snippets (Thomas Martitz).
Filetypes:
- Add new filetypes Ada, CMake, Matlab, NSIS, Vala and YAML.
- Update HTML character entities (thanks to Tyler D'Agosta).
-
Parse restructuredText sections in the order of first-used underline character, which can now be any punctuation character (as per the spec).
-
Remove GTK global tags, replace them with C (C99) tags. The GTK tags file is still available for download on the website.
-
Minor improvements for filetypes CSS, Fortran, FreeBasic, HTML, Tcl and Vala.
Windows:
- Improve tab close icon size.
- Changes to the Windows installer: - The full installer now includes the GTK 2.14 runtime environment.
- Register ".geany" as Geany Project File extension.
- Install GTK translation files only if installation of translation
files were requested (saves about 22 MB otherwise).

- Add Split Window 'Split Vertically' command (thanks to Moritz Barsnick).
-
Make Version Diff plugin set the indent type for diffs based on the current file's indent type.

Minor improvements to the filebrowser plugin
Plugin API:
-
Generate plugin API header geanyfunctions.h containing macros to avoid having to type the function pointer names manually.
-
Deprecate pluginmacros.h in favour of geanyfunctions.h.
- Add "editor-notify" to the plugin API.
- Add new plugin symbol plugin_help() which is called by Geany when the plugin should show its documentation (if any, symbol is optional).

brackets peculiarities). Adapted from SciTE doc.
