Two possibilities: 1. I create a shared object and put it under plugins directory and it gets loaded the next geany is opened. 2. Still better, I write the plugins using scriting language such as python in a way geany expects and place it under plugins directory and the next time geany is opened, it loads the plugin. The advantage of supporting a scripting language is the ease of development/contribution. Plugins being non-core components can afford the small overhead of slower execution I suppose. Anyway, if thought useful, would like to request this as a feature for future support. regards Shiv _______________________________________________ Geany mailing list [email protected] http://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany
