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

How can I get more information about writing gedit plugins in C?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

If you're willing to use Python instead, here is a tutorial for writing gedit plugins in Python.

In fact, this looks like the official way to go. It might be harder to write it in C.

and for this reason I gave the question +50 bounty, because materials in python is available but in C it's not, thanks

The only tutorial is the one you already found :

http://live.gnome.org/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:

I checked it a lot of time. I was searching for a simple HOWTO or someone has an enough experience but it seems I won't find them. thanks

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.
