Description Alex Loginov 2013-01-27 22:57:36 CET 
Description of problem: There is no BASIC support in geany.

Solution:
1) to add to Requires FreeBASIC (ftp://ftp.mageialinux.ru/mageia2/SRPMS/)
2) touch /usr/share/geany/templates/files/program.bas (empty file is enough)

spec with FreeBASIC template

I did not add Requires FreeBASIC, because geany have no Suggests and Requires for addons.

I don't know geany. Can you explain what adding an empty file changes in its behaviour? Step by step instructions to reproduce the bug and then to check that it's fixed would be useful for when I'll handle the update to QA team for Mageia 4.

Syntax highlighting for BASIC and auto run FreeBASIC compiller if you have installed package FreeBASIC.

File -> New (with Template) -> programm.bas
Enter BASIC programm, for example:

PRINT "Hello, World!"
END

You'll see syntax highlighting.

If you have installed package FreeBASIC, then you can use geany as IDE for BASIC:

File -> Save as...
Build -> Compile
Build -> Execute

geany-1.23.1-3.mga5 submitted. Do you want to provide an update to Mageia 4 too?

It's better after import FreeBASIC package. QA will test more rational if simultaneously.
