  <title>Directory project backend plugin</title>

  <p>
    This is the simplest project backend. There is no project file. It
    works like a file viewer, considering all files matching
    typical source extensions (for example <file>.c</file>,
    <file>.py</file>) to be source files.
    Directories are kept in order to group source files but there is no
    target.
  </p>

  <p>
    This backend is a useful workaround if your project does not have a
    corresponding backend in <app>Anjuta</app> or if the appropriate backend
    does not fully support your project.
  </p>

  <p>
    It is not possible to add or change anything with a project using this backend. But
    if you create a source file in the project directory, with the
    right extension, it will be added automatically.
