finding the gedit plugin folder
- by BlackSheep
I am a bit confused as to where I should put externally downloaded plugins. I have tried putting them in:
/usr/share/gedit/plugins
~/.local/gedit/plugins
~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins
/usr/lib/gedit/plugins
The way I have checked whether the plugins show up or not is going to Edit-Preferences-Plugins and looking for the ones I have downloaded (clickconfig, gedit-developer-plugins-...). Since I do not see any new plugins appearing, I have to assume that I am doing something wrong.
None of these have worked. I am a bit tired of polluting my system. It's probably my own fault as it's written somewhere I have not thought to look. Please let me know how to add external plugins to gedit properly. I am running Ubuntu 11.10. My gedit version is 3.2.3
EDIT: I am still not able to solve this problem. I have tried the following folder now as well, and it hasn't worked:
~/.config/gedit/plugins
