# Pinner

A [Geany plugin](https://www.geany.org/support/plugins/) designed to enhance

document management by allowing users to pin documents to a sidebar tab. This

feature is particularly useful for users working with many multiple open

documents, as it enables them to add selected filenames to a list for easy

access. Users can then simply click on a filename in the list to switch to

that document.

The plugin will add two items to the Geany tools menu:

    Pin Document

    Unpin Document

The list is not persistent and will be cleared when you exit Geany. To clear

it manually, right click on it and left-click on "Clear".

## Keybindings

When the plugin is enabled, keybindings to pin and unpin documents can be

changed from the Geany preferences menu.

## Build and Install

    meson setup builddir -Dprefix=/usr

    cd builddir

    ninja

    sudo ninja install

This will build the plugin and install it to '/usr/lib/geany'. You may change

the prefix if desired. Use `meson configure` in the builddir to see other

build options. See the [Meson Build docs](https://mesonbuild.com/) for more

information about using Meson.
