[Evolution] writing plugins in python?
Hi Evolution collective, I read somewhere that it was possible to write evolution plugins in python, but googling returns nothing, and the documentation seems to suggest otherwise/only shared libs and mono. So assuming that I am going to have to try to do it by creating an .so file, is there a skeleton example for creating plugins?

so that the editor can format it correctly, so one of the shell scripts
I use starts:
echo -- br

Doesn't make any sense why should I put HTML tags in a linux script?

Kmail automatically adds the -- which I'm having to use for this message since
Evolution has suddenly decided to lockup when trying to either reply to a
message or write a new message. Another question is why doesn't Evolution show
a new message count as they come in? I'm using an IMAP account on my local box
along with fetchmail and procmail. In Kmail when a new post comes into one of
the folders the message count shown changes but not in Evolution. Though I'm
more concerned with the lockup right now. Another issue with using Kmail in
Gnome is that for some reason I can't sign messages, I get a signing failed,
bad passphrase though I can sign them using Evo, but Kmail works fine in KDE.

Err, because that's how it works. And you aren't putting HTML tags into
the script - you are using a script to output HTML tags to the Evolution
editor.
echo KeyID 0xE372A7DA98E6705C
if [ -p /tmp/xmms-info ] ; then echo Live - $( grep Title: /tmp/xmms-info |
awk -F': ' '{print $2}' )
fi
And if you notice your sig in Evo doesn't have a line break between the
KeyID and Live whereas your kmail one does. That's because you didn't
put a br after the KeyID. To fix it, the first line just has to read:
echo -- brKeyID 0xE372A7DA98E6705Cbr
Kmail automatically adds the --
And Evo doesn't. There are reasons for it.

a new message count as they come in? I'm using an IMAP account on my local

Have you told it to look for new messages in all folders?

I keep getting a window that says, Enter password for the default keyring to unlock Two buttonsdeny and ok and somewhere to put your password. What is this and how do I get rid of it? As Jeff pointed out, current Evolution is integrated with Gnome-keyring. This pop-up is probably, huh, popping up because your login password and the g-kr password do not match anymore. Until (AFAICR) gnome-keyring 2.24 you could change your g-kr password by running gnome-keyring-manager. On current 2.25 Gnome I cannot find this utility anymore -- but this may well be due to my ignorance. If you still have this utility, run it, and reset the g-kr password (your previous login password should be the one) to your current login password, and you should be all set. Also, it keeps asking me for my email password even though I've clicked the box that says, Remember password Any ideas? Yes. Again, as already pointed out, your Evolution is set to use gnome-keyring. So... it will always use it, until you rebuild without g-kr integration.
