GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 373757
Document plugins
Last modified: 2010-01-13 19:28:08 UTC
There is no mention at all of what the plugins do in the user manual. I will need information from developers to work on this. Which plugins come as standard with xchat-gnome? What do they do? Is there existing documentation I can move into the manual?
All the plugins you have with Edgy package are standards. AFAIK there is no documentation for plugins except the little description in the plugin preferences page.
Could the plugin developers explain what they do?
Network monitor: use the Network Manager to control connection state Auto Away: mark you away when your screensaver is active Sound notification: play a nice song when a word is highlited (including your nick) or you receive a private message Notification: add a icon in the notification area informing you of events in xchat-gnome. The level of notification can be configured since HEAD version. On-screen display: Display a notification box when you receive a private message (and maybe with highlighted word. To be checked). Perl, TCL and Python interface: enable scripting in these languages URL scrapper: display all the urls from your conversation in a ugly box :)
hi Joachim Would it be possible for you to provide a patch to fix this documentation issue. 1. Setup a local repo using the command below $git clone git://git-mirror.gnome.org/git/xchat-gnome 2. Edit the documentation "help/C/xchat-gnome.xml" with 3. Run "git diff ", and attach the o/p . ps: I am not a native english speaker.
This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report. http://git.gnome.org/browse/xchat-gnome/commit/?id=82102ce3bf9e5678965be2961d877f06fc4d881b
