Description

Returns an array of the unique IDs of all the plugins currently installed.

Available in MUSHclient version 3.23 onwards.

VBscript example

If Not IsEmpty (pluginList) Then
                  
  For Each p In pluginList 
     world.note p & " = " &  world.GetPluginInfo (p, 1)

if (pluginlist)  // if not empty
  for (i = 0; i < pluginlist.length; i++)
      world.note(pluginlist [i] + " = " + 
                 world.GetPluginInfo(pluginlist [i], 1));

PerlScript example

foreach $item (Win32::OLE::in ($world->GetPluginList))
   {
   ($key, $value) = ($item, $world->GetPluginInfo ($item, 1));
   $world->note($key . " = " . $value) if (defined ($key));
   }

Python example

pluginlist = world.GetPluginList
if (pluginlist):
  for p in pluginlist: world.Note (p + " = " +
                  world.GetPluginInfo(p, 1))

Lua example

for k, v in pairs (GetPluginList()) do 
  Note (v, " = ", GetPluginInfo(v, 1))
end

Return value

If there are no plugins then the return value is empty. Use "IsEmpty" to test for this possibility.

Otherwise, it returns a variant array containing the unique IDs of all the plugins. Use "lbound" and "ubound" to find the bounds of the array of plugins (ie. the number of plugins in the list). You can then use "GetPluginInfo" to find information about each plugin.
