Thanks for the suggestions, Lex, Matthew, unfortunately the issue I mentioned below occurs even when I set the filetype to "none" (via menu->document->set filetype->none). Digging through the preferences again, I ran across "use indicators to show compile errors" and the hover-tip explains that it underlines with the squiggly underline that I'm seeing, but I have that setting turned off. It's strange because I have geany installed on my centos box and my winxp box, and as far as I can tell, the preferences for both are set up the same, but the <? in the same file triggers the indicator in the centos geany only. Is there something else I can try? Thanks!
