- Maybe the best idea I've ever had this evening: Introduce something like plugin groups in Geany. This actually would require some action in Geany - in special the plugin manager dialog - but I think that would be really cool: I really can imagine GtkExpanders in the list of plugins like they are in the keybindings listing in the pref-dialog. A group would be shown if a plugin actually makes use of it, so it would be a plugin developers decision if a plugin would be listed in the a group and how the group is called. To put more plugins into one group, the plugin developers would have to use exactly the same group name. Besides putting some plugins into a group "Web Development" that would allow many possibilities more, e.g. a group "sidebar" where the file browser and other additional sidebars could be put or "Scripting" where GeanyLua and - in Future
- a Python plugin could be settled and so on...
Well, enough of playing with thoughts. If someone likes the idea feel free to implement it! :)
I like the last idea just on reading on, without thinking too much.
Thanks, Frank
