Read Project Settings

[mkrs]

I extended the get_settings function to also consider project settings of the active window.
All default settings (except the 'extra_tag_paths') are supported.
I also updated the README to reflect these changes.

I'd also prefer these commits squashed into two commits - one for implementation and one for docs - if at all possible. Do this and I'm happy to merge.

[mkrs]

Sure. I am happy to correct this. Do you have a pylintrc for me to use, or should I just use PEP8? Also do you have a preference on how to merge/overwrite the extra_tag_paths? Then I would also add this.

[stephenfin]

Any news on this?

[mkrs]

I fixed the things you pointed out. Do you have a way to merge/overwrite the extra_tag_paths option? And I also don't exactly know how to squash these commits into 2 commits, do you have a hint how I can accomplish that?

Good stuff.

Do you have a way to merge/overwrite the extra_tag_paths option?

What is special about this option? I can have a look myself, but it'll be a few days (personally I wouldn't worry about it for now - it can also go in a separate commit).

And I also don't exactly know how to squash these commits into 2 commits, do you have a hint how I can accomplish that?

You'll want to look at the git rebase -i command. There's a very good guide here.

Here is the default setting:

// Paths to additional tag files to include in tag search. This is a list
// of items in the form [["language", "platform"], "path"]
"extra_tag_paths": [[["source.python", "windows"], "C:\Python27\Lib\tags"]]

I am wondering how to merge or should I just overwrite the setting?

I would just overwrite it personally - don't see any point in keeping it. Do be sure to keep the same format though obviously.

Any further updates? This is a useful addition that I would like to merge, if possible.
