Installing Geany as editor using Ubuntu 10.04

[jwmyers]

I have Geany 0.18 installed on my Linux OS (Ubuntu 10.04) but I am unable to configure it for use with Ren'Py. I tried to follow the Read Me files in the downloaded ZIP files on the editor download site, but they do not work. Ren'Py is working fine and I am using JEdit without difficulties, but I would prefer to have a better editor. Could someone provide some instructions to follow so I will be able to use Geany instead of JEdit?
Thanks

Try this in your /launcher folder:
disclaimer: I haven't tested it. This is based on optimized editor code of mine plus geany's own documentation.

Code: Select all

# Name: Geany
# Version: 1
# Description: Linux only

import os
import os.path
import sys

editor = "geany"

normalargs = ' +"%(line)d" "%(filename)s" "%(otherfiles)s"'
config.editor = editor + normalargs
config.editor_transient = editor + ' -i' + normalargs
