gtksourceview - GTK+ 2.x text widget that implements syntax highlighting ChangeLog

HOWTO


# GtkSourceView
# =============
# Slackware 9.1's 'gedit' package includes gtksourceview 0.6.0, 9.0's just
# includes gedit itself, and 10.0 and 10.1's include gtksourceview 1.0.1
# As of Slackware 10.2, Gnome is no longer included (and neither is gedit).

# If you plan on replacing the Slackware package, you should 'removepkg
# gedit', then run through this howto, then reinstall gedit.

# I include two releases below, 1.0.x and 1.4.x, both for different Gnome
# releases.  I will keep both updated, but keep in mind that I only use
# the Gnome 2.12.x version.

# If you ever want to uninstall GtkSourceView, cd into the source directory,
# run 'make uninstall', remove the source directory, and remove the tarball.
