this is actually one case where a DataEngine doesn't really make sense, as it isn't actually fetching data. what it is doing is: * posting data to a web site * showing the user the returned URL which means that this would work as a Plasma::Service. while most Services are associated with DataEngines, they are also loadable on their own if created as a Service plugin (in their own .so, not as part of an engine). i don't know if pastebin'ing is useful enough to create a service plugin for, but if one wants to do the Full Plasma Monty with this applet, a Service would be the way to go. -- Aaron J.
