[Geany-Devel] suggestion: Renaming GProject to ProjectTree

If people really love the name "ProjectTree" for the former GProject,
I'd be happy enough (but for the pain of renaming a bunch of stuff...)
to rename my plugin "ProjectOrganizer" or something that doesn't
conflict.

All the Best
Martin :-)

PS: Before I set off to write my own plugin, I looked carefully at the
options out there, and GProject certainly does a lot.  However, it
didn't meet my basic requirement of being able to organize project
files according to purpose - it (and others) wanted to always diagram
files according to the file system layout (which is normally
semi-predefined by a build tool).
