Nothing more to say then that this is the nicest editor around.

Thanks. At quick glance it may now be possible to drop Notepad++ under Wine!

And it's available under Ubuntu Ad/Remove/Synaptic - but listed as an IDE which is why I completely missed it I guess ...

[WebSiteGuru]

Cool bean, Now I can use something that have line number.

Hopefully it will also be under PCLinuxOS Synaptic, I just changed Distro from Ubuntu to PCLinuxOS.

[DJ Maze]

It's small, fast and has code completion!

I never knew these features could be in such fast programs.

Not to mention that is cross-platform so you always have the same syntax highlighting and tricks on all platforms.
That just "feels" comfortable no matter if i boot Windows, CentOS or my Fedora 8.

I should build tags files for theme designers and php coders.
That way any Dragonfly user can easily program with the Dragonfly specific functions and constructs on any platform using Geany.

Now that would be cool!

(Looks as if the Dragonfly standard template comment text at start of module could be similarly defined.)

Looking at website, I think I need to upgrade to 1.1.3 asap for the new features.

Yeah same for me

[NanoCaiordo]

In fact it is an IDE lol, not a text editor with highlight functions. Its definitively an IDE.

But with geanyvc and spellcheck plugins installed its now even my main text editor.

[layingback]

For those of you under Ubuntu, you'll have noticed that each version of Ubuntu's repositories are a version or 2 behind with respect to Geany. It's not hard to install the latest Geany from the home page, but it is work.

I just discovered this site with complete builds of later versions of popular apps, including Geany. Simply download select open with the default installer, and it's installed - as easy as using an official repository. (Some apps require upgrading of dependences first, but Geany doesn't - on my system anyway.)

Just ensure that you are selecting the correct one for your version of Ubuntu! Link is to 32bit Intrepid, but they have versions for 32 & 64bit of Intrepid & Hardy.

Geany 0.16 (vs 0.13 in Ubuntu repositories) adds vertical split screen, and auto completion of (, {, [, ', and ".

But note your toolbar settings before upgrading, as you will need to update it after, as 0.16 has a simpler default toolbar set.

Enjoy!

Geany looks great. If it's IDE, does it also support Java and compiling it? (IntelliJ Idea is just a bit too slow for some quicktasks and too massive)

[DJ Maze]

Great layingback, i will check it out!

As for compiling Java? No idea if it works but you just point to a compiler and hit the button.

I do this all the time for PHP to check if my script is still valid.

VERSION 2.0 - UPDATED 13/08/2010


I've builded the TAGS and snippets files for Dragonfly CMS.
Tested on Geany 0.16 on Ubunthu / Windows.

Linux: The files should be placed on the user's (home) directory:

~/.geany/snippets.conf
~/.geany/tags/dragonfly.php.tags (tags are activated on PHP files (*.php|*.inc))

on Windows 7:

C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\geany

The snippets.conf file includes "snippets" for other languages: php, java, python etcetera!. Please make sure you don't delete your custom snippets.

I've chosen the common php & HTML code snippets for DF, vars and functions FROM DF 9.2. In Some functions I've included the default values for a quick reference. The TAGS are written in the simplest way PIPE (not the complex way, but if we build a "complete" list of common functions|vars|html|php then then i possible to start making the TAGS & snippets on the format=tagmanager way)

More Info & Reference.
www.geany.org/manual/c...lobal-tags

Make sure you have auto completion enabled!


Suggestions ARE PRETTY WELCOMED, code snippets, common $vars, functions and so on.

TAGGED functions (auto completion):

Code:

adminlink()
bbcode_table($field, 'form', 0);

smilies_table('window', $field, $form);
strip_javascript($text, $events=true)
trigger_error()
validate_secimg($chars)
viewbanner()
yesno_option($name, $value)

Also auto completion for the $userinfo array snippet(TAG & snippet):

if you start typing "usr_"

auto completation starts showing the options (the columns for on the _users table [default]) for example:

Code:

usr_active_cp| usr_active| usr_actkey| usr_aim| usr_allowavatar|

Choosing (For Example) usr_allow_viewonline and THEN PRESSING TAB will convert it to

Code:

$userinfo['user_allow_viewonline']

TAGGED & Snippet For $db-> Updated for version 2: type db_ and name of method:
On the old version tags were "complicated" to memorize/learn.

Code:

db_arguments = $db->sql_affectedrows($result); 
db_count = $db->sql_count(''.$prefix.'_'); 
db_fetch = $db->sql_fetchrow(''.$prefix.'_',SQL_ASSOC); 
db_free = $db->sql_freeresult($result); 
db_fetchrow = $db->sql_fetchrowset('SELECT  FROM '.$prefix.'_ WHERE  ORDER BY  LIMIT'); 
db_insert = $db->sql_insert(''.$prefix.'_', fields, false); 
db_numfields = $db->sql_numfields($result); 
db_nextid = $db->sql_nextid($idfield); 
db_numrows = $db->sql_numrows($result); 
db_query = $db->sql_query(''.$prefix.'_', FALSE,FALSE); 
db_rowseek = $db->sql_rowseek($rownum); 
db_update = $db->sql_update(''.$prefix.'_', fields, 'where', false); 
db_ufetchrow = $db->sql_ufetchrow('SELECT  FROM '.$prefix.'_ WHERE  ORDERBY  LIMIT'); 
## require_once

so if you type: db_fetchrow AND PRESS TAB you'll get:

Code:

 $db->sql_fetchrow(''.$prefix.'_',SQL_ASSOC);

*** : After the auto completion the cursor will placed there.

Common Vars TAGGED (autocompletion):

Code:

$adminindex
$banners
$bgcolor1
$bgcolor2
$bgcolor3
$bgcolor4

Snippets
Snippets are small strings or code constructs which can be replaced or completed to a more complex string. For .php and .html Files.

Class/function: Prefix

Cache: cache_

Code:

cache_save = Cache::array_save($name, $module_name, $array);
cache_load =  Cache::array_load($name, $module_name, $global)
cache_del =  Cache::array_delete($name, $module_name);

so if you type cache_del AND PRESS TAB you'll get:

Code:

Cache::array_delete($name, $module_name);

And So on.

Security Class: sec_

Code:

sec_check = Security::check(); 
sec_post = Security::check_post(); 
sec_domain = Security::check_domain($domain)
sec_email = Security::check_email($email)
sec_ip = Security::get_ip()

require_once: req_

Code:

req_bb = require_once(CORE_PATH.'nbbcode.php'); 
req_hd = require_once('header.php'); 

template tpl_

Code:

tpl_set = $cpgtpl->set_filenames(array('body' => '.html')); 
tpl_vars = $cpgtpl->assign_vars(array(   'U_' => $var1,   'L_' => LANGCONSTANT,   )); 
tpl_block = $cpgtpl->assign_block_vars('block_vars', array(   'U_' => $var1,   'L_' => LANGCONSTANT,   )); 
tpl_display = $cpgtpl->display('body',true); 

comments class (made by Kendle) The will be updates to integrate the jquery class and the updated versions of the comment class.

Code:

class_comm = require_once(CORE_PATH.'classes/comment.php');  $var =& new comment($mod, $link, $page, $key1, $key2, $op); 

file class: file_

Code:

file_analyze = CPG_File::analyze_path(); 
file_move = CPG_File::move_upload($file, $newfile); 
file_write = CPG_File::write($filename, $content, $mode); 
file_copy = CPG_File::copy_special($oldfile, $newfile); 
file_secure = CPG_File::secure_download($error, $filename, $realname); 

rss : rss_

Code:

rss_read = CPG_RSS::read($url, $items_limit); 
rss_format = CPG_RSS::format($rss);

Open & Close tables

Code:

opentable= OpenTable(); 
closetable = CloseTable(); 
opentable2 = OpenTable2(); 
closetable2 = CloseTable2(); 

Modules: commo used lines of code.

Code:

mod_ini = if (!defined('CPG_NUKE')) { exit; } 
mod_global =  global $db, $user_prefix, $prefix, $cpgtpl, $userinfo, $MAIN_CFG, $CPG_SESS,$multilingual, $currentlang,$ThemeSel,$METATAGS,$pagetitle; 
admin_ini = if (!defined('ADMIN_PAGES')) { exit; } if (!can_admin('INSERT_MODULE_NAME')) { die('Access Denied'); }

Cool! I should try Geany out again (though also like Web IDE).

Updated the Tags files for geany.
