Sure, it could be added to various places, but for the case of the LSP plugin it would *never* be useful. For other synchronous applications it could potentially be useful I guess, so possibly calling it where Geany already does might be a reasonable thing, and an async plugin would just do nothing there… dunno. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/pull/3849#discussion_r1660184463 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
