Anyone have Xinha running as a plugin? (Just wanted to be sure before I contemplated writing my own)

I’m sort of working on one. Got the preliminary code up and running. I just need to work on integrating some settings and the Resource Manager. Shouldn’t take long.

Which nightly are you using? Some of the latest don’t seem to work with the newest version of FF. I have a nightly from a few months ago that works just as good as the new version (sans a few recently created plugins) if you need it.

This is what is shown on the version tab in the About dialog box:
Release: Trunk (Sun, 17 Jul 2005 17:15:29 +1200)
Head:
http://svn.xinha.python-hosting.com/trunk/htmlarea.js
Revision: 268
Last Changed By: gogo
Since the Xinha devs don’t appear to be showing the revision numbers on their site, it seems that this is the only way to tell which version it is. I’m currently running on Firefox 1.0.6 and don’t see any real problems yet with Xinha. Then again...I could be wrong. Guess we’ll see.

No problem. However, keep in mind that this isn’t even close to done. What you’ll see here is just the editor itself...no special settings or anything. I still have to work on getting the Resource Manager to work with it and I need to get some of the Xinha settings in the Configuration menu. Lots to do...but at least this will show that the editor itself will work dandy with the new plugin system.

Let us know when it is completely working and please provide us with guidelines about what exactly to do to have it work. Excellent development!

Yeah...I’m a little behind on this. Been busy with some other things. But I should be able to get on top of this here in another day or so. Work is work! Ugg!

Just a quick update on my progress with this. I still have some work to do on the plugin...not much...but enough to keep me busy another week though.
However, due to some required changes in the core, I’ll have to wait till TP4 to release it. The reason is that I’m implementing some array values for some of the plugin settings. As such, the core needs a small change to allow storing manager settings as arrays. Why use an array? Well, in the case of the Xinha plugin, I felt it best to use an array to store which plugins will be used in the editor. That way the user can select and/or deselect which plugins in Xinha they wish to use. This is just one feature...but I have a few more I’m implementing as well. Should prove to be quite snazzy once it’s done.
More to come...
