File browser plugin: filtering directories

[stefanct]

Hi,
with the file browser plugin one can easily filter out files by name patterns (in a new sidebar tab named "Files" in case you don't know that). Unfortunately, the check that prevents elements added to the viewed list (check_filtered()) is guarded by a if (dir) (literally :):

geany/plugins/filebrowser.c

Line 255 in bf5c9ed

if (check_filtered(utf8_name))

I have not tried it but I don't expect any problems if it's applied to all elements, i.e. to directories as well. Would you accept a patch that adds this?

Would you accept a patch that adds this?

I don't see why it would not be accepted if it doesn't stop existing functionality from working.

@stefanct sorry I initially read this as referring to treebrowser in Geany-plugins.
