[Geany-Devel] Request to become a member of the geany organization

Hello Geany-Core and Plugins-Team, I would like to know if it would be possible to add me to the geany organization at github. My goal is to be able to do some work on my own without the need to disturb others: - merge PRs for plugins which I maintain myself (after 2 weeks?) (scope and workben

[Geany-Devel] Why has the universal ctags project to be merged?

Hello, I have got a maybe stupid question out of curiosity: Why needs the universal ctags project be merged into Geany instead of e.g. just copying it over? I guess the reason is not that we do not trust their test quality ;-) Greetings, Lars ___ De

[Geany-Devel] How are ctags used?

Hello, I have got a question regarding the design of Geany or better say how do the components work together regarding ctags. I think I understood that ctags files can contain global tag definitions, e.g. for external APIs. Lexers are there for the syntax highlighting. Scintilla is the edito

Re: [Geany-Devel] Linker issues with VTE

A short update: Checking the documentation on GNOME Developer Center revealed that no VTE function used in the scope plugin seems to require a specific version. So I posted my PR without any version requirement for VTE (so only [vte-2.91]). Greetings, Lars On 23.02.2018 07:14, Lars Paulsen
