Actually, it's easier than you might think. There is a sample 
plugin that shows how implement a plugin with a window, buttons, 
text boxes, and a popup menu/combo box. Each of the example 
buttons illustrates a particular portion of the PDK so you can 
use one or more of them as a launching off point for your own 
custom plugins. I think what most people don't realize is that 
you can do a heck of a lot with the basics described in the 
first 50 pages of "The C Programming Language" by Dennis 
Ritchie, and Brian Kernighan. Small tradeoff for the ability to 
access and manipulate the lowest level details of Finale.


Cheers,
