Re: [SM-PLUGINS] new 'default_domain' plugin

[Ryan O. <ry...@gm...>]

Tomas has it right.  One main reason I wrote this was to not mix user
preferences.

To answer Paul: I don't *recall* seeing standards for the name of config
file, though they could be there.  I'll look again or see if I can  
notice
a trend in other plugins.  Also, it seemed to me that several of the
plugins had README file and not INSTALL files. All of these things are
easily changed though.  I'm not really suggesting my plugin be  
included on
the plugin page (after all, anyone could rewrite it in 10 minutes or  
less
for themself), but I figured that since at least I find it useful, I  
might
as well offer it, since I'm always using other people's stuff.  I'll
incorporate the changes that have been noted and send the result back
under this thread, at which point people can ignore it, use it, and  
if you
think it should be made more easily available, tell me how to do so  
or do
it yourself.
