completed by: _Vincent
mentors: Peli
The task is to create a plugin for OI Notepad that lets you select text and convert that to QR code, or input QR code into OI Notepad.
Your plugin should be similar to the "Insert Date" sample plugin for OI Notepad, so that any text selection or the whole text can be used to create QR code and scanned QR code can be inserted at any cursor location. The plugin should use the Barcode scanner through intents and should ask for it if not present using the distribution library.
Your solution should consist of a patch (instructions) or a zip file containing the new plugin. If you don't have it yet, you first need to download and install the Android SDK (instructions). Follow these instructions to build OI applications.
