Thanks John.

For those wondering, this release fixes some issues with the spell check plugin (specifically enchant) leaving null data in %APPDATA% and updates fonts handling.

Updated to reflect the changes Smile

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

I just recognized that I have that folder in %APPDATA% too. Could you post your fix (code) at my Gramps Portable thread, because that could use enchant too. Maybe I can implement the handling of enchant as well. I don't want to waste too much bandwith. Wink
Thanks Oliver!

I've downloaded the package and installed it. But i've found no application for execution ?! Is it missing ? Or is this package just an addon for an other package ?

thanks in advance
Stefan

Did you download the Geany Portable Package or the Geany Portable Plugins Package?
The Geany Portable Package is mandatory as its the actual application and the PLugins are addons - not necessarily necessary.

The easiest thing is to go to the main Geany page and click the big red button and install that.

hmm.. it looks as if i just downloaded the plugins. Obviously i used the wrong link.

Thanks for the hint Smile
