EditorConfig makes it easy to maintain the correct coding style when switching
between different text editors and between different projects. The
EditorConfig project maintains a file format and plugins for various text
editors which allow this file format to be read and used by those editors. For
information on the file format and supported text editors, see the
[EditorConfig website][EditorConfig].
Contributing
------------
This is the README file for the *EditorConfig C Core* codebase. This code
produces a program that accepts a filename as input and will look for
`.editorconfig` files with sections applicable to the given file, outputting
any properties found.
When developing an editor plugin for reading EditorConfig files, the
EditorConfig core code can be used to locate and parse these files. This means
the file locator, INI parser, and file globbing mechanisms can all be
maintained in one code base, resulting in less code repetition between plugins.
Installation
------------
See the [INSTALL.md][] file for instructions.
Getting Help
------------
For help with the EditorConfig C Core code, please write to our
[mailing list][]. Bugs and feature requests should be submitted to our
[issue tracker][]. If you find any security bugs, please send them privately to
`hong AT topbug DOT net` -- they need to be embargoed before fixed.
If you are writing a plugin a language that can import C libraries, you may
want to import and use the EditorConfig library directly. If you do use the
EditorConfig core as a C library, check the [documentation][] for latest stable
version for help. The documentation for latest development version is also
available [online][dev doc].
