Does anyone know where information about writing gedit plugins can be found ? I'm interested in writing them in Python. I know of Gedit/PythonPluginHowTo , but it isn't very good . Besides the code of writing a plugin that does nothing , I can't seem to find more information . I started to look at other people's code , but I think this shouldn't be the natural way of writing plugins . Can someone help ?

Have you checked out http://sp2hari.com/2007/11/08/gedit-plugin/ ? I think this is as thorough as you're going to get, without poring through other people's code.

I'm sorry to say,but the site you posted doesn't have any new information . It's basically the exact same stuff from the gedit site , a bit restructured .

When I started working on my gedit plugin, I used the howto you gave a link to, also startign with this URL. Then it was looking at other plugins code... I'm sorry to say that, but for me this topic is poorly documented and best and fastest way is to get a pluging done that actually does something.
