gedit plugin development in C

Question

I'm Interested in writing gedit-plugins in C. I've checked Gedit/NewMDIPluginHowTo
...but haven't had any luck with it.

How can I get more information about writing gedit plugins in C?

Answer 1

如果您愿意改用 Python，这里有一个用 Python 编写 gedit 插件的教程。

Answer 2

The only tutorial is the one you already found :

Gedit/NewMDIPluginHowTo

I know it can be hard to understand in a first view, but if you read it a few times and give it a try with a basic example, you should be able to achieve getting results quite fast.

Is there something specific that you don't understand?

You can also download some examples of plugins available in C:

Answer 3

Well, you can always email some of the core Gedit developers about your question, I'm sure they have something to give. Try find them via Gedit: Help>About>Credits.

Good luck.
