You are now able to write your own plugins for EvenMore! Plugins can be written in any language which can output a standard Amiga library file.
You can now write a new type of plugin, for the EvenMore preferences. I have created an example plugin showing how this works. This will allow more complicated plugins to be created that require their own user settings. They will load and save their own config file when the EvenMore preferences are loaded or saved. They are also very simple to create, anyone with a basic knowledge of EasyGUI can make one!
Current plugins available are:-
| File | Version | Author | Function |
| AmigaWriter2Text.plugin | 1.04 | - | Convert AmigaWriter files to plain text. |
| Becker2Text.plugin | 1.02 | - | Loads BeckerText Word processor files. |
| Datatypes.plugin | 1.02 | - | Now any text file that is recognised by Datatypes can be loaded through EvenMore. NOTE: Plugins have precedence over datatypes. If you do not want EvenMore to use its own plugins for a file you have the datatype for, just delete the EvenMore plugin. |
| Dir2Text.plugin | 1.03 | - | Will let you browse directory trees. Drag a directory onto the window, and it will open like a text file. You can click on filenames to open them, or drawers to browse the next directory. Download new executable to use. |
| Eml2Text.plugin | 1.16 | - | Will convert emails saved by Outlook Express & Yam (hopefully others too?) into plain text format (also will convert html part of email if available) |
| Filetypes.plugin | 1.03 | - | A module to allow a primitive file typing function using a textfile to determine which files are launched by which programs. |
| FinalWriter2Text.plugin | 1.05 | - | Will convert FinalWriter and FinalCopy documents to plain text |
| Generic2Text.plugin | 1.05 | - | This plugin will take any file not recognised by the plugins below, and if it contains binary, strip all lines ending in CR or LF and display them. Only used as a last resort if a specific plugin is not available. |

This will allow users to create their own preference window in their favourite GUI, providing they also convert any plugins that have their own preference page.

If you happen to write any plugins yourself, drop me an email, and I can include the .plugin file in the EvenMore archive or on the web page. All source will of course be copyrighted by yourself.
