The solution https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/22#issuecomment-772130658 works from command line `export GTK_THEME=Mojave-light-solid:dark; open -a geany`
**_BUT_**, it does not work in normal Mac workflow. That is, double-clicking a file which opens with Geany, makes light mode. Also starting Geany from the dock defaults to light mode There is a `settings.ini` in the Macos bundle. Adding the following allows for dark-mode works: `gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=true` I don't think gsettings exist for Macos. **_For the average user_**, I think the best solution would be to keep Macos bundle intact. To reiterate: now two bundle-based alternatives exists (`gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=true`, or changing `gtk-dark.css` file names as in original post https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/22#issue-799806336). At least theoretically, maybe one of these could be jacked into to allow dark-mode setting from inside Geany menus?
