 You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
-doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the Gaim
+doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
 source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.

-This next paragraph is old and possibly out of date:
-Compilation of the plugins is fairly straight-forward; there is a
-Makefile in this directory that has a rule for making the .so file
-from a .c file. No modification of the Makefile should be necessary,
-unless if you simply want to type 'make' to have it made; otherwise,
-'make filename.so' will take filename.c and make the .so plugin from
-it. If you need to link in with extra libraries, you can set the
-environment variable PLUGIN_LIBS to be the libraries you want to link
-with.
-
-It should be possible to compile plugins outside of the Gaim source
-tree, which is a much cleaner solution.
