New to the world of plugins by Magyar on 08-18-2004 at 05:40 AM

Hello all, I'm new to making plugins for anything and have no idea how to start. I've read through the API documentation that this site gives and still am confused.
I am not a complete newb in the world of programming, but I have only taken 1 VB course and it only covered apps, no modules, class files or anything like that. I have also taken a Pascal and Java course. Since summer is almost over, I haven't done any programming for a while and want to get back into it, and this seems like an interesting way to keep up my (not so)1337 2k|LLz.
I'm not asking for a complete tutorial, but a simple sample plugin that does anything for me to take a look at and possibly some brief explanation as to how it does whatever it is it does, would be of great help


Thank you all, and I hope to have a nice stay here at the forums and get to know the great peoples of this place

The API documentation comes with a sample plugin.
