We have only very limited support for plugins in specific areas:What support does Evolution provide for custom plugins? Static? Dynamic? I'd appreciate it if someone could point me to some documentation for creating one.
- data importers, which use a bonobo (corba) based model
- electronic mail backends, using a c-based object model
- bonobo components for displaying mime data inline in the mail view
- ?? not sure what else.
Also, does Evolution support modifications to the GUI via a plugin (like adding a button)?
No.
This is something we've thought about, but haven't gotten around to doing anything concrete about. We would like to have a more well-defined plugin system, that would also allow gui extension (at least to menu's and configuration pages).
