I gave this PR a brief spin. Linux and Windows, GTK+2 and GTK+3, a few realistic and contrived examples.
----------------------------------------------- **Bug:** on Windows, if one of the pathnames to be rendered in the popup is too long, it is considered empty. This happens before the removal of common prefixes, so it looks like this:  This first line “: 1” actually refers to a very long pathname. If I click it, Geany successfully jumps to the symbol in that pathname, but also prints this to the console: Geany: utils_tidy_path: assertion 'g_path_is_absolute(filename)' failed So what is a “very long pathname”? Here is an example: C:\Users\Vasiliy\Downloads\Первая папка\В ней много интересного\Приколов не счесть\Всякое разное 1234567890\Ещё больше 1234567890\Последний уровень вло\Ор выше гор.c As you can see, it’s 165 characters long, but in UTF-8 it would be 261 bytes long. Now this is the minimum length where the problem happens. If I remove any **1 Cyrillic** or any **2 Latin** characters from anywhere in this pathname, it is rendered as expected. I could not reproduce this problem with ASCII-only pathnames, probably because Windows prevented me from creating a pathname longer than 255 characters. I could not reproduce this problem on Linux. ----------------------------------------------- When common substrings are ellipsized, Geany now prints messages to the console, like this: ``` p 0 Вторая папка/.../Тест.c p 1 Первая папка/.../Тест.c ``` I think this should be either removed or made more understandable. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
