gedit Plugins - Verision 0.7.9 and above.

The best way to learn how the plugins work, is to look at the 
code for other plugins. The plugin architecture has been
rewriten, so the docs described below are obsolete.

Please let us know if you are writing a new plugin.

You should use gedit convenience functions for interaction with gedit :
The only functions you should use to interact with gedit are : 

gedit_window_active();

gedit_view_active();
gedit_view_get_selection();
gedit_view_set_position();
gedit_view_get_position();

gedit_docuemnt_current();
gedit_document_get_buffer();
gedit_document_get_buffer_length();

gedit_document_insert_text();
gedit_document_delete_text();
gedit_document_replace_text();

gedit_plugin_program_location_get();
gedit_plugin_program_location_change();

gedit_flash_va ();


Please use the naming convention as the email plugin.

For information on developing plugins, read plugins/plugin_howto.
Currently, all plugins are stored in "/usr/local/libexec/go/plugins",
and can be run from the "Plugins" menu in gEdit...
(If you write a Plugin for gEdit, please write a corresponding Info note about 
it for this file. Thankyou -Alex)
