Hi Shane,
This sounds like a very worthwhile addition to Squirrel. I'm currently=20
starting to write the developers guide for squirrel so unfortunately at t=
he=20
moment the best way of seeing how to write plugins etc. is to look at the=
=20
code. There is some documentation in the squirrel-sql/doc/plugins.html fi=
le=20
but its somewhat out of date.
If you have any questions just send them to the dev list and either Johan=
or I=20
should be able to answer them for you.
