Thank you. Ok, the manual clearly states I need to reload geany.

I was hoping there would be some kind of weight system I could use to force 
placement in the Tool menu but alas not. Unfortunately it ended up almost at 
the bottom of the list and this needs scrolling to get to. I suppose I can 
mitigate that by assigning it a key-binding.
