+ Requirements ============
-For compiling the plugin yourself, you will need the GTK (>= 2.6.0) libraries -and header files. You will also need its dependency libraries and header -files, such as Pango, Glib and ATK. All these files are available at -http://www.gtk.org. -If you like to use spellchecking for your commit -messages you will also need gtkspell (>=2.0), but this is only optional. +For compiling the plugin yourself, you will need the GTK (>= 2.8.0) +libraries and header files.

If you like to use +spellchecking for your commit messages you will also need gtkspell +(>=2.0), but this is only optional.
-And obviously, you will need have Geany installed.

+You can also make usaage of Python based build system waf. Please +check documentation of Geany-Plugins package for details on usage of +both, autotools and waf. + + Usage =====
-After compiling and/or installing geanyvc, start Geany and go to menu -Tools->Plugin Manager and set checkbox at VC plugin. +Activation +^^^^^^^^^^
-You can configure the following options: +After compiling and/or installing GeanyVC, start Geany and go to +menu Tools->Plugin Manager and activate the checkbox at GeanyVC.
-* Set Change flag for document tabs created with pluging.
-If this option is activated, every new by the VC-plugin created document tab -will be marked as changed. Even thus this option is useful in some cases, it -could cause a big number of sometimes annoying "Do you want to save"-dialogs. +Configuration +^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-* Confirm adding new files to a VCS +Using Geany's plugin configuration dialog, you can change some +options of behavior of plugin.
-Shows a confirmation dialog on adding a new (created) file to VCS. If not set -you will not see dialog "Do you want to add <file>?"
-* Maximize commit dialog +Change flag for document tabs created with pluging +--------------------------------------------------
+If this option is activated, every new by the GeanyVC created +document tab will be marked as changed. This will cause Geany to ask +you whether you want to save when closing the document. + +Even thus this option is useful in some cases, it could cause a big +number of sometimes annoying "Do you want to save"-dialogs. + + +Confirm adding new files to a VCS +--------------------------------- + +Shows a confirmation dialog on adding a new (created) file to VCS. +If not set you will not see dialog "Do you want to add <file>?" and +GeanyVC will add the file without any further questioning. + + +Maximize commit dialog +---------------------- + If this option is activated, commit dialog will fit the full size of your monitor. If it is not set commit dialog size will be 700x500.
-* Use external diff viewer
-If this option is activated and you have **meld**, **kompare**, **kdiff3**, -**diffuse** or **tkdiff** available from command line, one of these program -will be used to show differences for "Diff From Current File" command. +Use external diff viewer +------------------------

-geanyvc detect if opened file is in version control by checking directories -and executing commands from version control systems toolchain. These options -disable checking for particular version control system. Disabling not -required ones can speed up things. So it is recommended to activate svk only -if you want to use it, since it is quiet slow.
