09 Jun 08 GEdit plugin formatting Ruby and ERB code now!

Now I just updated the plugin and added support for formatting html.erb and .xml.erb files too.

The main idea is to make this plugin a generic language code formatter for GEdit, contributions are welcome.

As told before, to install it, grab the source from GitHub and copy all files to ~/.gnome2/gedit/plugins.

To download the files using Git use the following command line:

git clone git://github.com/urubatan/gedit_formatter.git

If you want to contribute just send a pull request in GitHub or send me a patch by e-mail.

To use the plugin, just press CTRL+ALT+F after installing and enabling it.

If you do not have git installed, you can download a tarbal with the latest sources from this link.

Hi ramon,
The code for formatting ERB can be used to format HTML and XML too, but I want to integrate tidy for this work, I think next week I can publish a version with this integrated.
javascript and actionscript 3 will be a little more dificult, but we can work that out.

The plugin uses command line utilities to format the code, I’ll publish a tutorial on how to integrate other formatters ASAP, thanks for the tip.
