drop gnome and use s/th like the awesome window
manager, with which you might lua-script your
way through to the desired behavior:

but this would, i think, still leave the question
of how to tell geany in which instance a new file
is to be opened. for me, it always opens in the
instance first created. so maybe this assignment
question is a viable one for the devs, or is there
an existing solution already?
best, paul

Hi all,
I'm a refugee from the Nedit text editor and have now moved to Geany
after a very brief fling with Gedit.
I'm on Linux and have 8 virtual desktops and I often work on different
projects on different desktops. If I run gedit from the command line
gedit will start a new instance if there isn't already a running
instance on the current virtual desktop.
I know I can do 'geany -i<file>' to open a new instance, but I was
wondering if the behaviour of Gedit could be matched with Geany.
Hi Eric,
Geany does not know about virtual desktops. These are accessed with
Gnome specific libraries and would increase the dependencies of Geany
and would make it more complex to keep portable to all desktops and to
Windows.
Cheers
Lex
Erik
