UPDATED: This plugin is now part of GMate project. follow project instructions to know how to install.

A Gedit plugin (default Gnome text editor) that allow gedit to capture text markups, included in your source file comments, generating a file list containing the file name, the line number where the comment was found and the comment about the mark.
The plugin is an reimplementation of the plugin created by Nando Vieira adding some improvements and optimizations. The original code is written in Ruby and our code is written all in python. Ruby is a great language but, for users that don’t need Ruby for another application or simple don’t want to install Ruby on their computers this is a solution, because python is default in most Linux distributions.
The original plugin is already a port from the Textmate ToDo Bundle (Textmate is a featured Text editor for Mac) and many features found there, are also present at our plugin.

Our friend Nando Vieira have done an exelent work porting the features to gedit, we can see the results of his work at the folowing screenshot (from his blog):

All I’ve done until now was get the original code from Nando’s svn repository as explained on his blog, improve some aspects and port all to Python.
