annotate README.plugins @ 2273:0b5c3338fa3d

[gaim-migrate @ 2283] One of the girls on the floor of my sister's dorm lost both her parents when their plane was hijacked and crashed into the World Trade Center. my girlfriend's boss's sister-in-law's brother died when the building collapsed. my parents flew to atlanta on monday; they're safe but currently stranded there. they had planned on flying to Raleigh, NC today but now are just hoping to be able to fly home soon. how did this happen? committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

Note:

If you do not wish to enable the plugin support within GAIM, run the
./configure script with the --disable-plugins option and recompile your
source code.  This will prevent the ability to load plugins.

'make install' puts the plugins in $PREFIX/lib/gaim (PREFIX being what you
specified when you ./configure'd - it defaults to /usr/local). Gaim looks
for the plugins in that directory by default, but they do not have to be
there to use them. Also, plugins have a .so extension by default, though
they do not have to.

Enjoy and Happy Hacking!
