gedit session saver plugin

This is a plugin for gedit, the official text editor of the GNOME desktop environment. It’s a fork of the original gedit session saver plugin that have been dropped in gedit 3.7.1. This repository contains the ready-to-use version of this plugin that I fixed and improved in my gedit-plugins repository.

This plugin is for gedit versions 3 and above. This plugin is NOT compatible with gedit 2.x.

If python 3 is not installed or not available on your distribution, you should use the python 2.x version of this plugin. The Python 3 version requires python3-gobject or python3-gi depending of your distribution.

The translation of the plugin is not available in this repository, but it is always available in the package gedit-plugins from your distribution. If this package is installed on your system, the translation should works.
