Plugin development

[Anders Jacobsen]

Lets put general discussion on plugins in this thread.
We should soon have a little tutorial on plugin development on the
wiki (http://mirmaid.org/doku.php?
id=plugins#how_can_i_implement_my_own_plugin).

One way to get started developing a miRMaid plugin:

* After setting up miRMaid locally, create a new directory for the
plugin in vendor/ (i.e. 'vendor/mirmaid-targetscan'). This directory
holds all code for the plugin, so it can be put under version control
on i.e. github.
* start developing the plugin in this directory. I guess one could
start from scratch by iteratively adding unit-tests, features and
implementing code, or by taking an existing plugin and gradually
modifying it towards the goal.
