I just committed your code together with the modifications I sent you yesterday to our SVN repo.

You can even integrated in the help system yourself. Simply but it in your Plugin's doc directory and then override Plugin.getHelpFileName() to return the name of your html file. > >> 2.

The same is true for any of our database specific Plugins. But if you still want to make it available with SQuirreL just put it in your Plugin's doc directory. It would be nice if you could document your Plugin as well as your future changes with some headlines in our global change log: <sql12>/doc/src/main/resources/changes.txt Thanks for contributing to SQuirreL Gerd |
