Install Geany And Geany Plugins 0.20 In Ubuntu [PPA]

Geany is a text editor using the GTK2 toolkit with basic features of an integrated development environment. It was developed to provide a small and fast IDE, which has only a few dependencies from other packages.

Changes in Geany 0.20:

• Improved compatibility with GVFS using GIO to save documents
• Fix sometimes crashing when closing a modified document and choosing Save
• Reorganise Find in Files dialog and add Files pattern to filter search results
• Show mimetype icon in sidebar Documents list and notebook popup menu
• Add per-document indent width setting
• Fix passing quoted arguments when using 'Send Selection to'. This means e.g. sed 's/\./(dot)/g' now works
• Add alternative color scheme based on Python colors (View->Editor->Color Schemes - not all filetypes supported yet).

The Geany Plugins 0.20 package got two new plugins: UpdateChecker and WebHelper as well as many changes for the GeanyExtraSel, eanyGenDoc, GeanyLaTeX and TreeBrowser plugins.
