Yes. It's the same plugin. From this point of view Geany is extremely well organized. Although the first day I had a problem with double closing brackets as the bracket closing extension does not disable the geany preferences. > By the way, auto-save is dangerous unless you keep incremental > copies of each one. Certainly. And also dangerous is to rely on the user to remember to save often. > There was no way to retrieve the data.

Which would make sense to disable the auto save. It can also be a waste of time. > If I wanted auto-save [...] I'd write a script to capture each auto-save > the instant the program spits it out and rename it with the date and > time (to the second) and do manual clean-up afterwards. Geany has it all in the same extension. Save actions. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.geany.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/users
