New Geany support files posted to: http://rapideuphoria.com/eugeany-1.2.tar.gz They should be available in a day or two, if not sooner.

Many improvements: EuHelp.e now has a switch for users of the Linux Distribution, Debian. inspired by Andrew Katz editions to the previous version. Linux file paths are automatically determined and Windows users should only have to edit one simple constant declaration. No more file swapping with filetypes.Euphoria.conf. Also, std.euphoria-4.1.e.tags, and snippets.conf. The installation/backup program is much improved and now called EuGeany.ex. Simply unpack the EuGeany 1.2 files to the directory EuGeany and run EuGeany.ex from there.

A feature I would like to see, is one where the user of an editor can jump to different places of his sources according to an ex.err file. So, after a EUPHORIA program is run, and an ex.err file is created. The editor can jump to the line of failure, and then if we could have an easy way to get to the caller's line from there and all the way up the chain that would be something indeed.

Search and replace over multiple files using regular expressions is a feature I appreciate from jEdit. However, it would be nice if it could do search and replace only in say the current EUPHORIA routine, and only in the code and comments and not inside strings. So, suppose we had checkboxes for comments, code, and strings. So you can choose any combination thereof.

Finally, it would be nice to have spell checking. In the strings, the dictionary would be the natural language of the system (or something set by the user using the system), in the code the dictionary would be the declarations, and when declaring new symbols they could check between the underscores so users don't accidentally misname variables: tihs_entry would have the 'tihs' part underlined in red on the declaration. After that the use wouldn't be a spelling mistake, but 'this_entry' would because it would mispelt. Finally, comments should have a dictionary that is a combination of this and the earlier symbols.

This goes way beyond what you can do with syntax highlighting files. I suppose it is possible to create a Jedit plugin for this. Certainly, it is possible for someone working directly with a project's source code.

That's my 2 cents. To send me 2 cents, my bitcoin address is: 1DMHNzJEhKo5Nr8v7dHp41byA8v2C67Quq :)

This is a feature in Edita, and I shamelessly copied it in my wxIDE editor (I think there's something like this in ed.ex, too). It is very handy.

The basic idea is that you hit F12, which opens up an ex.err file in the directory of the file you're editing, and then you go to whatever line you're interested in, and hit F12 again, which goes to the referenced line. If the file isn't already opened, then it opens it for you.

Some time ago, I documented a way one could associate .err with ed.exe, in the Installation (Section 2.? ). You need to modify the registry. When done you only click the ex.err file and ed.exe opens for you. Now, if we have a way of directing an editor to go to some line in a given file at the command line, you can strip out pieces of ed.ex and call whatever editor that can do that. But often it is not the inner most frame that has the problem. It is the caller of that routine, calling it badly for example.

Click here: http://rapideuphoria.com/eugeany-1.2.tar.gz

The files should unpack to the directory EuGeany-1.2. The installation program EuGeany.ex should be run from the installation directory.

Read the documentation comments for EuGeany.ex and EuHelp.* before running EuGeany.ex.

Please post any requests for help, criticisms, or suggestions for improvements here or email to me at: wolfmanjacques@gmail.com

Thanks a million for the installation code, Tom! I'll try to put your routine to good use.

Some updated info for Windows installs:

In my version of Windows, the actual path to the directory created by geany is

    C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\geany 

That path doesn't exist until geany is run once. You should tell users to run geany once so it can write those default files/dirs. This way you can confirm that whatever path they provide for installing these forms is correct.

The path to geany config files needs to be gotten from getenv("APPDATA"), instead of getenv("HOME").

APPDATA can be used from Windows XP on up. On my Windows XP box, it returns

    C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data 

    C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\geany 

constant GEANY_DIR = getenv( "APPDATA" ) & SLASH & "geany" 

Ask if ya gots questions...

I think that if a file you want to backup doesn't exist, don't issue an error and cause the user to have to press a key. Just skip it gracefully. No harm, no foul.

For example, the "filetype_extensions.conf" file doesn't exist at first, but you warn me that it wasn't able to back it up. Not a biggie, really.

ALSO: The executable on Windows is EuHelp.exe, so currently it fails to install the help file because it uses the Unix name (no extension).

Finally, if EuHelp.exe already exists in the \bin\ folder, it doesn't get copied and indicates a failure. You should probably remove the old copy and move the new one in, just in case.

I have decided to upload EuHelp separately, so there will be a similar installation program for those files. Here is the latest....

--  
--  EuGeany 1.3b 
--   
--  usage eui EuGeany.ex 
-- 
--  Installs Geany configuration files which 
--  provide support for the Euphoria Programming Language 
--  Existing files are backed up with a backup extension suffix 
--  which may be defined by the user 
-- 
--  Windows XP and later users should run Geany at least once, 
--  prior to executing this program, in order to set the "APPDATA" 
--  environment variable. 
-- 
--  For more information read comments in the respective files, 
--  especially, filetypes.Euphoria.conf.
