Learn by doing [message #652583]

Hi,

I want to learn plugin development and, in order to make learning
interesting, I'd like to create a plugin that works like "Externalize
strings..." function, but for web pages.

The first step would be a plugin that scans an existing project in order to
make a list of files of interest (i.e. something that, when run, says "Scan
for ..." and a drop down box with extension choice (.html for example),
builds a list of them and saves somewhere.

My first question is: which kind of template should I start from?

Plugin with a property page? Plugin with a multi-page editor??

Other suggestions?

Thanks

Francesco

Try the one with Hello World Command ... that will allow you to execute
"something".

Then start filling in the body of your handler execute(*). It's also
worth-while to look at how Externalize Strings... itself finds relevant
files.
