[gedit-list] ANNOUNCE: libpeas 0.5 - plugins for everyone

[Steve Frécinaux <code istique net>]

Hi all,

I am very proud to announce today the first release of libpeas - the 
plugin engine from gedit, enhanced - in its version 0.5.0.

libpeas is the next evolution of the Gedit plugins engine, and is 
targetted at giving every application the chance to assume its own 
extensibility. It also has a set of enhanced features with regard to 
what Gedit used to provide, mirroring the desiderata of your favourite 
text editor's developpers:
 - multiple extension points
 - on demand (lazy) programming language support for C, Python and JS
 - simplicity of the API

More details can be found on the announcement blog post here:

Ignacio Casal Quinteiro and Garett Regier)

Cheers,
Steve Frécinaux
