Project Management is optional in <span class="application">Geany</span>.
Currently it can be used for:
</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p>Running <span class="emphasis"><em>Make</em></span> from the project's base
directory.</p></li><li><p>Setting a custom <span class="emphasis"><em>Run</em></span> command specific to
the project.</p></li></ul></div><p>
</p><p>
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.
</p><p>
The current project's settings are saved when it is closed, or when
<span class="application">Geany</span> is shutdown.
When restarting <span class="application">Geany</span>, the previously opened project file
that was in use at the end of the last session will be reopened.
</p><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="id2812116"></a>New Project</h3></div></div></div><p>
To create a new project, fill in the <span class="emphasis"><em>Name</em></span> field. By default
this will setup a new project file <code class="filename">~/projects/name.geany</code>.
Usually it's best to store all your project files in the same directory
(they are independent of any source directory trees).
</p><p>
The <span class="emphasis"><em>Base path</em></span> text field is setup to use
<code class="filename">~/projects/name</code>. This can safely be set to any existing path
- it will not touch the file structure contained in it.
</p></div><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="id2812155"></a>Project Properties</h3></div></div></div><p>
You can set an optional description for the project, but it is not used elsewhere by
<span class="application">Geany</span>.
</p><p>
The <span class="emphasis"><em>Base path</em></span> field is used as the directory to run the
Make command in.
</p><p>
The <span class="emphasis"><em>Run</em></span> 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.
</p></div><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="id2812191"></a>Close Project</h3></div></div></div><p>
Project file settings are saved when the project is closed.
</p></div><div class="section" lang="en"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a name="id2812202"></a>Open Project</h3></div></div></div><p>
The <span class="emphasis"><em>Open</em></span> command displays a standard file chooser, starting
in <code class="filename">~/projects</code>.
