Add code to you plugin that displays an about box when it is passed  
the "about" argument. Then package the plugin as a JAR file and  
include a file named "plugins.config" containing a line similar to:

Help>About Plugins, "My Plugin...", My_Plugin("about")

where My_Plugin is the name of the plugin.

There is an example at
