Perforce Plugin for Notepad++

Support:

This plugin is not supported in any way, but if you are stuck you can try to contact me
at sknop@perforce.com and I'll see if I can help.

Usage:

Drop DLL into notepad++/plugin directory. 
Restart Notepad++
Enjoy :-)

Be aware that the environment (including registry and P4CONFIG) is picked up through 
the directory in which the file is located. I tend to have many workspaces on my 
machine, and each one contains a p4config file, so this works well for me.

Building:

If you want to build the plug-in from source, you will need the Perforce C++ API, which
you can download from ftp.perforce.com. I have only tested this with the static version 
of the library for VS2008, which is the compiler that I use. 

Unicode vs ANSI:

This plug-in has only been designed to work with the Unicode version of Notepad++ (simply
because this is the version that I use myself). If you need the ANSI version, you will need
to surround the calls to WideCharToMultiByte with "#ifdef UNICODE" and "#endif" and compile 
for the ANSI release. 

Happy hacking
