Geany, themes pack
September 23, 2014
Installed Geany on a fresh Ubuntu machine & I realise it does’t have much to offer as customization. Ran a quick sudo apt-cache search geany
yet nothing about the themes. I did an Internet search and then I realised the last time I customized Geany it was using template config files from Codebrainz Github page.
Just download the zip file according to your Geany version & extract the .conf
files to the ~/.config/geany/colorschemes folder. These should be now available under View > Editor > Color Schemes.
There’s a vertical line representing the 72-character line break which you might also want to get rid of. Do it by disabling the Long line marker under Edit > Preferences > Editor > Display.
What is an IDE?
IDE stands for integrated development environment and that’s a software which facilitates the work of software developers. An IDE consists of a source code editor, build tools and a debugger.Update – 25/09/2014
As JoKi states in the comment below, yes, indeed it’s easier to pull updates via Git.$ cd ~ && git clone https://github.com/codebrainz/geany-themes.git
$ geany-themes/install.sh
Use Git to pull the files on your machine and run install.sh
which copies the theme config files to the correct path.
