Re: [orca-list] How do you edit markup? e.g. html?

[Didier Spaier <didier slint fr>]

Hello,

@Anyone interested:

Yes geany is accessible.

Alt+F brings up the File entry menu (the left most one here) , from where you navigate with the arrow keys.
The plugins manager is under Tools, the preferences and plugin preferences under Edit.
A detailed help is available online typing F1, the Help entry menu also includes the keyboard shortcuts.

In Slint so far we ship geany 1.31 and associated plugins in two packages.

All source tarballs are in http://download.geany.org/

The most recent release at time of writing is 1.32 as noted in:
http://download.geany.org/LATEST-IS-1.32

The "git tarballs of the day", are:
http://download.geany.org/geany_git.tar.gz
http://download.geany.org/geany_plugins_git.tar.gz
You find the date they are built in:
http://download.geany.org/README.txt

Geany and plugins are silmple to build, nothing fancy.

I hope this helps.

Greetings,

Didier
