22 =head1 SYNOPSIS
24 use Pidgin;
26 =head1 ABSTRACT
28 This module provides the interface for using perl scripts as plugins in
29 Pidgin, with access to the Pidgin Gtk interface functions.
31 =head1 DESCRIPTION
33 This module provides the interface for using perl scripts as plugins in Pidgin,
34 with access to the Pidgin Gtk interface functions. With this, developers can
35 write perl scripts that can be loaded in Pidgin as plugins. The script can
36 interact with IMs, chats, accounts, the buddy list, pidgin signals, and more.
38 The API for the perl interface is very similar to that of the Pidgin C API,
39 which can be viewed at http://developer.pidgin.im/doxygen/ or in the header files
40 in the Pidgin source tree.
