Summary: Cannot open geany after installing the geany from macport? → geany: cannot open display

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.)
