<title>Project Management</title>
<para>
Project Management is optional in <application>Geany</application>.
Currently it can be used for:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>Running <emphasis>Make</emphasis> from the project's base
directory.</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>Setting a custom <emphasis>Run</emphasis> command specific to
the project.</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</para>
<para>
As long as a project is open, the Make and Run commands will use the project's
settings, instead of the defaults. These will be used whichever document is
currently displayed.
</para>
<para>
The current project's settings are saved when it is closed, or when
<application>Geany</application> is shutdown.
When restarting <application>Geany</application>, the previously opened project file
that was in use at the end of the last session will be reopened.
</para>
<section>
<title>New Project</title>
<para>
To create a new project, fill in the <emphasis>Name</emphasis> field. By default
this will setup a new project file <filename>~/projects/name.geany</filename>.
Usually it's best to store all your project files in the same directory
(they are independent of any source directory trees).
</para>
<para>
The <emphasis>Base path</emphasis> text field is setup to use
<filename>~/projects/name</filename>. This can safely be set to any existing path
- it will not touch the file structure contained in it.
</para>
</section>
<section>
<title>Project Properties</title>
<para>
You can set an optional description for the project, but it is not used elsewhere by
<application>Geany</application>.
</para>
<para>
The <emphasis>Base path</emphasis> field is used as the directory to run the
Make command in.
</para>
<para>
The <emphasis>Run</emphasis> command overrides the default run command. You can
set this to the executable or main script file for the project, and append any
command-line arguments.
</para>
</section>
<section>
<title>Close Project</title>
<para>
Project file settings are saved when the project is closed.
</para>
</section>
<section>
<title>Open Project</title>
<para>
The <emphasis>Open</emphasis> command displays a standard file chooser, starting
in <filename>~/projects</filename>.
