Probably not a big issue for the update checker plugin where it connects only our trusted geany.org domain (or similarly the geniuspaste plugin) but I can imagine such issues when e.g. compiling webkit for the markdown plugin - this is why I didn't spend much time trying it. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1981423988 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

As a side note, web libraries (like Gnutls) are quite active as they address CVEs, so using a non-native library that is included in your release means you would be releasing a continuous stream of security updates. It should use a native library that is part of Macos and so is regularly updated by that platform and doesn't require Geany to be updated to fix. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1979814584 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

If I remember correctly, I didn't manage to compile/configure gnutls correctly so https didn't work which is needed for the update checker plugin. Maybe things have changed, I just haven't tried recently. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1978795993 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

The Update Checker does not show up in the Plugin List of Geany, and looking at the website for the updatechecker, I see no installation instructions for MacOS. My guess is that it is not implemented yet for the Mac. The font issue can be closed. I think I will open an issue for making the updatechecker available for MacOS. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1975865827 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

There is the UpdateChecker plugin (https://plugins.geany.org/updatechecker.html) which is probably also included in the macOS bundle.

Ah, I see. This works indeed. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1964261562 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread. Message ID:

Ahh, if you are only changing the font face it will have no effect, the face and weight (bold) are both part of the styles controlled by the colour scheme. Maybe try changing actual font, or the size. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1964223661 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Just tried it on Geany 2.0. Same effect. Font does not change. I tried the change from the font Jet Brains Mono Medium to the font Jet Brains Mono Light Italic (on the grounds that if I change to an italic font, the change would be immediately visible). In the status bar, I get the message 14:49:51: Font updated (JetBrains Mono Light Italic Condensed 17). but the font itself does not change. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1964199650 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Settings should be preserved - `~/.config/geany` isn't modified in any way when you copy-over the binary. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1964133596 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Well, simply that I did not know that 2.0 is available for MacOS already. Sadly, Geany does not have a builtin update checker. What do I have to do for updating it, in order to have my old settings (preferences, list of recent files etc.) preserved? I guess if I just download the dmg file for 2.0, I get a clean, new copy and all my settings are gone. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1963656333 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Hmm, works for me (on Geany 2.0, macOS 14.3.1). I haven't tried 1.38 - could just be a bug in the older GTK shipped with that release. Do you have any specific reason for not using Geany 2.0? -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany-osx/issues/53#issuecomment-1963036736 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
