Thanks.
I got geany with a dependency problem, but it seems to work. It wants libcairo2 at a new version.
I wish geany had some commandline/tools that I could load for various types of
testing to allow me to stay in one environment and not have to slip in and out of the editor/compiler to be able to test. I guess I could keep a file of commandlines and just copy and paste them into the execute command field as I move thru the various stages of testing and from one program to another.
