Setting up Raspbian Geany as C64 Editor

--> Raspberry Pi/Pi400 as a C64 Development Station                <--
--> Setting up the Geany editor to look/feel like Turbo Macro Pro. <--

Raspbian comes with Geany, a programming IDE intended for the use
of Python/C on the Raspberry Pi.   With a little work, it can be
"adjusted" to the look/feel of running Turbo Macro Pro on a real C64.
The advantages are the ability to look up information via web/pdf
while you are programming and copy/paste information straight into
your code. (ie: spritemate.com)

Geany on requires tweaking it's configuration files to make this happen.
I have a preference to a black background with large PETSCII characters,
so this information is geared in that direction.

Make the following adjustments to: filetypes.conf
MENU: Tools-->Configuration Files-->filetypes.conf

  .--.      .-'.      .--.      .--.      .--.      .--.      .`-.      .--.
:::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\
'      `--'      `.-'      `--'      `--'      `--'      `-.'      `--'      `

current_line=0x000000;0xffffff;true;false

caret=caret;;true

caret_width=3

  .--.      .-'.      .--.      .--.      .--.      .--.      .`-.      .--.
:::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\::::::::.\
'      `--'      `.-'      `--'      `--'      `--'      `-.'      `--'      `

These lines already exist, and just need some adjustment.
The first sets the "current line" to black background.
The second two adjust the cursor to present as a block.


Next, you'll need to make some changes to filetypes.asm.
You could copy/paste the entirety of the following
over the sections [styling] & [keywords].
This is a work in progress, but it's pretty close as
of this posting.
MENU: Tools-->Configuration Files-->Filetype Configuration-->Programming Languages-->filetypes.asm

This will provide the proper assembly Syntax highlighting.  I've set
most of these to Commodore colors on an 8bit background.

This same file also contains the Compiler/Run commands.  These are
mine, but your pathnames may vary.  Use these as a starting point.

Next, you'll want the PETSCII font.  I dug mine out of VICE and put it
into the .fonts folder of my Raspberry Pi's user folders.
You can change to it in MENU: Edit-->Preferences-->Interface

Under MENU: View-->Change Color Scheme I use a scheme called "Delt Dark"
with several adjustments made to it.
It's a simple text file that needs to be located in:
/home/pi/.config/geany/colorschemes

Here's my "delt-dark.conf" file:

Finally, under MENU: View, I turn off most everything execpt line numbers, the status window, and the toolbar.
