[Geany-devel] Attempted python plugin

[Oliver Marks]

thanks for the suggestions i will give them a try later but i believe i
came across both post previously i dont think i tried the dll one,
mainly because i thought it was windows specific, but i will also try
those linker options again, i have actually done quite a lot of googling
and tryed loads of linker options but there are so many options i could
have got it wrong :)

I think the biggest thing the confuses is me is why running import fails
only when you embed, i would have expected it to be useing the same
files as the normal interpreter and just work.
