The plugin should use the normal Geany keybindings for record functions, you should raise a feature request or ping the maintainer. Note that plugins should *never* define default keybindings, there is nothing stopping them from conflicting with other plugins or user set keybindings.

[Geany-Users] Recording Macros / Keyboard bindings
Hello, I have installed the Macros plugin, but you have to use the mouse a lot to use it: You have to go to "Tools > Record Macro", then enter a shortcut on a window, and finish with "Tools > Stop Recording". I was wondering if there is an alternative to start/stop recording from the keyboard. Ideally I'd press something like "Ctrl+M" to start recording and then "Ctrl+M" to stop recording, and always use the same key to run the macro. That way I could use macros entirely from the keyboard. Is anyone aware of any option to do that? AFAICT you cannot assign key bindings to start/stop macro. This is the plugin I found: http://plugins.geany.org/geanymacro.html Cheers, Daniel. -- Lord of the rings calendar in your Linux/Unix/Mac terminal: cat /usr/share/calendar/calendar.lotr ___ Users mailing list Users@lists.geany.org https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/users

I found an example of that in filetypes.Python and I copied it. Depending which lexer you use, the style definitions will be different, so if you copied Python's [styling] section but then used the Perl lexer, it probably won't work too good (except maybe for really common stuff like comments, normal strings, etc). To get an idea where these names come from you'd have to look inside `scintilla/include/Scintilla.iface` and `src/highlightingmappings.h` files in Geany's source tree. To get highlighting you need to specify a lexer using the lexer_filetypes setting, see http://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html#settings-section Since there isn't a GNUPlot lexer you need to specify something "close enough". Ok. I tried to do this. I can get several lexers working (Perl, Python, C, Tcl) but the Bash lexer doesn't seem to do anything. No matter, the Perl and Python lexers seem to work fine. It depends on a) having a language that's "close enough" to your language that the given lexer can understand enough to get some useful highlighting and b) having the right stuff in `[styling]` that corresponds to your lexer, which is easier to do like `[styling=AnotherFiletype]` to copy from the true filetype, for example see filetype.Cython.conf.

[Geany-Users] Help: Custom syntax highlighting file.
Hello, I want to add syntax highlighting for Gnuplot files. I have made an effort to follow the documentation but the syntax highlighting doesn't work. My guess is that I got the file contents wrong. I am using the instructions in the manual: http://www.geany.org/manual/dev/index.html#custom-filetypes As instructed, I edited filetype_extensions.conf and inserted the following line: Gnuplot=*.plt;*.gp; I also created filetypes.Gnuplot.conf and I have every indication that Geany can in fact read this file: 1) I now have a new menu entry: Document > Set Filetype > Gnuplot file. 2) Geany seems to recognize that a file with the .plt or .gp extension is a Gnuplot file (it says "Gnuplot" on the status bar). 3) All this stops working if I remove filetypes.Gnuplot.conf So clearly Geany can see the file. But I do not have any kind of syntax highlighting that I can see. So I suppose that my file contents are wrong. Here is the file. Can anyone see an obvious problem with it? -- // -- # For complete documentation of this file, please see Geany's main documentation [styling] # foreground;background;bold;italic default=0x00;0xff;false;false commentline=0xd0;0xff;false;false number=0x007f00;0xff;false;false word=0x99;0xff;true;false string=0xff901e;0xff;false;false character=0x404000;0xff;false;false operator=0x301010;0xff;false;false identifier=0x00;0xff;false;false backticks=0x00;0xd0d0d0;false;false param=0x009f00;0xff;false;false scalar=0x105090;0xff;false;false error=0xff;0xff;false;false here_delim=0x00;0xddd0dd;false;false here_q=0x7f007f;0xddd0dd;false;false [keywords] primary=at help plot set terminal eps png svg enhanced plot key top down left right label xlabel ylabel xrange yrange [settings] # default extension used when saving files extension=plt # the following characters are these which a "word" can contains, see documentation #wordchars=_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789 # single comments, like # in this file comment_single=# # multiline comments #comment_open= #comment_close= # set to false if a comment character/string should start a column 0 of a line, true uses any # indentation of the line, e.g. setting to true causes the following on pressing CTRL+d #command_example(); # setting to false would generate this # command_example(); # This setting works only for single line comments comment_use_indent=true # context action command (please see Geany's main documentation for details) context_action_cmd= [indentation] #width=4 # 0 is spaces, 1 is tabs, 2 is tab & spaces #type=1 [build_settings] # %f will be replaced by the complete filename # %e will be replaced by the filename without extension # (use only one of it at one time) run_cmd="./%f" -- // -- Thanks for the help.
