Howdy Community,
I just implemented all needed bits for stage 2 of my ToDo list.
for the ToDo List see here:
https://github.com/chrys87/orca-plugin/blob/plugin_system/TODO
what does this mean?
- Orca does provides easy functions to register / unregister
signals, API and shortcuts for plugins
- we have an awesome translation API where plugins can bring its
own translation, but can fallback to the orca internal
translations
- Orca monitors all by plugins used Resources and release them
on deactivate the plugin
- we don't trust plugin functions and callback and encapsulate
all the callbacks into try / except statements while
registration
- plugins have bring onPostInstall and onPreUninstall triggers
while installation / uninstallation process to handle special
things related to installation process like dependencies,
setting reset or cleanup
- A lot of fixes to the clipboard plugin
- A lot of fixes overall :)
see all the awesome details on my blog:

by the way, i also created an first shot of an OCR plugin just for
fun:

its a first shot and going to be improved for sure.
Next and last big thing, before we can bring all bits together, is
all the gsettings and preferences related stuff. Its a lot of work
and might take a while.
I will come up with some ideas here for discussion later.
cheers chrys
