I really like Geany hand have used it on some vast projects and also some smaller half vast projects.
I find it to be extremely good as a tool for making HTML documents.
Some have been instructions like this.
Some have been huge javascript efforts.
For these the syntax highlight is the most important feature in practice. But it would be nice if:
A marker on the left edge toggled when the nesting level change. This would help to spot "[" where I intended "{".
There was a tool that scanned to ensure that I misspelled the variable names the same way every time. Somehow highlighting the first case of a given word would be a good way to do it.

Code: Select all

<OL>
<LI>Download Puppy Linux</LI>
<LI>Boot from the Puppy Linux</LI>
</OL>

Code: Select all
CaesiumLineMeters = 894.6E-9;
// much code
CesiumFrequencyHz = SpeedOfLight / Cesium/LineMeters;

I like word completion (not the annoying autocompletion). After typing first character(s) of a previously defined variable, press Ctrl+Space to get a list of already used strings. Pick from the list to avoid typos. This also can ensure that you don't use a new variable name that's already in use.
