Plugins ======= To understand more about plugins, read doc/plugin.txt For the impatient, here is an extremely brief overview of how to install plugins. 1. Change to the plugins directory. $ cd plugins/ 2. Unarchive the plugin. $ tar -zxvf /home/me/myplugin.tar.gz 3. Note the directory that the plugin was created into. For this example, we will assume it was put in the directory: myplugin/. 4. Read the README, INSTALL or other documentation in your new plugin. Follow any important configuration instructions inside (about half the time there are none, sometimes they are extensive). $ cd myplugin/ $ more README 5. Go to the config directory and run conf.pl $ cd ../../config/ $ ./conf.pl 6. Choose option 8 and proceed to add the new plugin following the instructions there. Save and exit, and your plugin should be in place.
