[Goodies-dev] Newbie wants to work on xfce4-cpugraph-plugin

[Connor Behan]

Keep two directories of the xfce4-cpugraph-plugin source... one that you 
modify and one you don't. If the modified plugin compiles on your 
system, go to that directory and run "sudo make install". That will 
overwrite the old copy of xfce4-cpugraph-plugin on your system and all 
you will need to do to test your changes is restart the panel.

The amount of GUI programming you need to hack a panel plugin is fairly 
small. To learn that, try the Gtk2 tutorial 
http://developer.gnome.org/gtk-tutorial/stable/ and make the example 
programs yourself.
