@elextr - super weird. No idea why I created this issue here and not in the
geany repo.
Can an admin please
[transfer](https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/managing-your-work-on-github/transferring-an-issue-to-another-repository)
the issue in the other repo?
CC @geanyadmin,
@elextr: I expect Geany core (not a plugin) to remember the cursor and scroll
position for recent files, and restore them when the file is opened again.

I've been using Geany for years and today I recommended it to a friend. He
installed it on Ubuntu then asked,

Thanks @elextr, I've set the format via Edit -> Insert date -> Set custom date
format.
A bit confused about what "Templates" meant in that dialog, and who uses
software manuals noawadays for text editors? :)

I've installed Ubuntu 20 and the current version of Geany. When I press
Shift+Alt+D, the date is always in the `DD.MM.` format.
This doesn't match my regional settings (English/Canada, trying to get the
system to output -MM-DD), or the setting in Geany:
@elextr: should the default be to always wrap search?

Just a nudge that I've installed Geany 1.36 on a new machine ~3 years later,
and ran again into this usability issue. Thanks in advance to the kind soul(s)
who can provide a PR.

Issue still present in v1.33. Cursor positions are saved for the open tabs when
Geany is restarted, but not when a file is re-opened from Recent Files.

Double asterisks in a code block indented by four spaces should be ignore, but
that's not exactly the case. Play with spaces and single/double asterisks in
the code block below and note the highlighting of the headings:

Geany should first save the line position in each file, when being exited
normally (#1117). This is a super commonly used feature with any files that are
edited frequently: when you open a source file you've been working on, you want
the cursor to be where you left it, but Geany resets its
OK, that makes more sense. How about this:
> You've just reloaded this file from disk. This has overwritten your unsaved
> changes. If you want to go back to the unsaved state, click "Go back".
And have two buttons, "Go back" and an "x" to dismiss the message.
If the user goes back, great. If
I've been a programmer for 20 years and I can't make sense of this message. Why
was the file reloaded? What are my choices? What do I lose vs. gain? Can this
message be simplified?

I'm a keyboard user with carpal tunnel. When I search for a string, half the

option in the Question dialog is "Cancel":
I use Geany as the external editor for my file managers (Krusader, Double

inspect it for a few seconds (scrolling around), then exit, ideally without

While editing files longer than one page, Geany manages the scroll position
such that the currently edited line is always the bottom-most line. One
unfortunate side effect of this is that the spell checking underlining will be
hidden beneath the status bar (depending on the height of the
