themes, plugins, ridiculously easy custom configurations/build commands etc
you can even control the window manager from config files if you want to, its insanely customisable
lacks support for alot of things
edit: trying to sound less snarky, but do you have alot of examples?
i could see these criticisms arising from a quick glance. or we may have slightly different definitions of these terms. which is fair enough.
imo geany's ratio of features to weight is remarkable, perhaps singularly so?
Based on about 20 minutes of searching last night - it seems to lack support for debugging outside of gdb.
That's quite a major thing to not have if you're going to claim support for lots of languages...
true, though its fairly easy to use the build interface to setup basic debugging support (breakpoints, watches etc) for unsupported languages. but i admit, its not the same.
you're right, that's a fair criticism
I just know I wasn't able to get code suggestions, highlighting or error highlighting working. There might be a way but I spend a bunch of time on it and accomplished nothing. If there is a way it isn't obvious
suggestions should work by default, if by which you mean basic completion of names etc
anyway fair enough, its not for everyone.
sorry for being a bit overly defensive, i just really love geany lol
