## Description

A anjuta profile contains the list of all plugins used in one Anjuta session. It is possible to add and remove plugins, check if one is included or get the whole list. The plugins list can be saved into a xml file and loaded from it.

A profile in an Anjuta session includes plugins from up to 3 different xml sources:

$prefix/share/anjuta/profiles/default.profile | This contains the system plugins. It is loaded in every profile and contains mandatory plugins for Anjuta. These plugins cannot be unloaded.
$project_dir/$project_name.anjuta | This contains the project plugins. It lists mandatory plugins for the project. This file is version controlled and distributed with the source code. Every user working on the project uses the same one. If there is no project loaded, no project plugins are loaded.
$project_dir/.anjuta/default.profile | This contains the user plugins. This is the only list of plugins which is updated when the user add or remove one plugin. If there is no project loaded, the user home directory is used instead of the project directory but this list is used only in this case. There is no global user plugins list.
