I have find a bug in Geany 1.22 : if a Txt2Tags file which contains 20 "-" on a line (--------------------) after the header, Geany crashes. I think the bug is due to an error in coloration rules.
Can you try with the first line empty and the 20 "-" on the second line (I realized that it doesn't work with the first line). Make sure that you use syntax highlighting for Text2Tags.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Same here, your test file seems to work just fine. It's kinda strange though because there don't seem to be any change to the highlighter or tag parser since ages.
@adr could you please provide a backtrace of the crash using GDB? (how to do so is explained in the Getting a backtrace section here http://www.geany.org/Support/Bugs)

OK, I tried 1.22 and it didn't crash, but it entered an infinite loop, which is just as buggy.
There is a bug with signed vs. unsigned comparisons in HasPrevLineContent(), but for some reason it doesn't lead to a crash or a loop with the latest version, one of the calls must have been fixed to properly handle invalid positions. I'll try to fix it properly but the effects of the bug doesn't exist in development version.

Does not occur with Geany 1.23 (git >= eeddd6f), please provide an example file that always fails.

Doesn't crash for me (at least with latest git).

That doesn't crash either.
