I have made a video showing how to make a plugin.

It can be watched at How to make a plugin in MUSHclient. An imbedded copy is below on this page.

Constructive comments are welcome, for example is it too fast, too slow, not enough detail, and so on.

I have added closed captioning to this video. This will help if you can't understand my Australian accent. ;)

The captions also correct some minor errors in what I said, so the caption text should be taken as more correct than the spoken text.

I run my copy of Windows under VMware on a Mac. I used ScreenFlow to capture the screen (it does the zooms and stuff) - however that is a Mac product.
