 I have installed the geany using macport

 {{{
 #sudo port install geany
 }}}

 Now, when I try to launch geany from spot light. I get the following
 errors.

 A terminal opens -

 {{{
 Last login: Wed Nov  5 23:44:51 on ttys001
 SHREYASs-MacBook-Pro:~ shreyasjoshi$ /opt/local/bin/geany ; exit;

 (process:9451): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
         Using the fallback 'C' locale.
 Geany: cannot open display

 logout

 [Process completed]

Comment:

 Usually one launches command-line applications like geany from a terminal
 window, not from Spotlight or the Finder. Running `geany` from a terminal
 window works for me. If that doesn't work for you either, what is the
 value of your `DISPLAY` environment variable? (You can run the `env`
 command to find out.)
