Hi folks, I want to discuss shortly the expected behavior of plugin_help()-function implemented by plugins. Inside API-documentation its written:
> Called whenever the plugin should show its documentation (if any).
>
> This may open a dialog, a browser with a website or a local installed
> HTML help file(see utils_start_browser()) or something else. Can be
> omitted when not needed.
Well... which means its not really defined what the user will expect
once he push the button. Therefore we do have at least 2.5 major behaviors:
- Geany is calling a browser and opening a webpage with info (spellcheck
plugin)
- Its opening a message window with
* a short info about plugin (e.g. geanyLaTeX)
* a long help text about plugin (e.g. geanymacro)
Question is, what do we really want to have behind that function?
Cheers,
Frank
