Plugins wiki-page cleanup

[MortenMacFly]

Is this plugin of enough importance for me to add a page for it on the wiki?

Yes, it should be considered.

[MortenMacFly]

On further inspection, it appears to have become/merged into the Abbreviations plugin; is this correct?

No, these are two different plugins.

Keymacs allows for complex macros, including recording while abbreviations only accounts for a few (easy) macro replace operations, configured by hand.

Thanks.  (By the way, I moved KeyMacs to 3rd Party.)

Most of the plugins on the main plugins page are named "<PluginName> plugin" (whereas on the announcements page they are simply named "<PluginName>"), however, some do not follow this.
I am giving people a heads up that I plan to rename the plugins on the main plugins page that do not follow the precedent.  I also plan to rename the ThreadSearchManual page to "ThreadSearch plugin".

Done moving pages.

I think the SpellChecker plugin points towards SpellChecker; it will still get there through a redirect, but someone should probably change the internal link to SpellChecker plugin so it gets there directly.

In looking into writing a page for the TRACE32 Debugger plugin, "only" information I could find was posted here.  Does anyone know anything further?

I noticed the plugin Header Guard is included with the SVN source, but not built by default.  Should I add this as a Core/Contrib/3rd Party plugin?  If so, which category?

Patch submitted (3216).

Header Guard added as 3rd Party.

Header Guard added as 3rd Party.

Maybe a little bit out of topic here, but these 4 plugins are in the src\plugin dir, but not built:

Code Select Expand


src\plugins\headerguard\
src\plugins\loghacker\
src\plugins\modpoller\
src\plugins\tidycmt\

Are they update? What do they do? Should they be removed, moved to contrib?

They build just fine for me, hence you've to manually select / open the project files.

1.) headerguard: Ensures you have a #ifndef H_FILE_INCLUDED #define H_FILE_INCLUDED #endif in each of your header files using a unique GUID
2.) loghacker: manipulate the loggers that have been created by several plugins / the core
3.) modpoller: polls for externally modified files in a certain interval (so C::b asks to re-load them if changed externally).
4.) tidycmt: formats comments of a certain style "nicely" when the file is saved

These are very specific and (if enabled by default) would most likely cause unexpected behaviour (imagine you are saving a file and it looks different afterwards). So these plugins are there for people who know how to use them and as tech-demo.

I had seen these before, but I could only figure out what Head Guard does.

So these plugins are there for people who know how to use them and as tech-demo.

These plugins are not exactly 3rd party (as I placed Header Guard), but nor are they core or contrib; is there another category I could place them in?

They actually really belong to the core, just they are disabled.

[Alpha]

OK, I have shifted them to core (and given them a note).

What's about Code Statistics plugin page?
There is no code, and no executable file(.cbplugin), no link to other place.
It's should be removed, or be reconstructed.

The code stat plugin is in svn -> src/plugins/contrib/
