Looking for a simple recipe for creating a simple plugin, and a tutorial, too!

I tried to find out how to create plugin, if you have a freebsd port, already. That should be simple, right?? So there should be a simple recipe for that, right??

If someone could point me to some manual/tutorial/recipe for setting up a plugin for FreeNAS 9.3, given an existing port, and also some info on how to determine if a specific port for freebsd could work in FreeNAS 9.3, I would be very grateful.

I tried searching, but no real luck.

I found a blog talking about plugin creation, but it was for FreeNAS 8, and contained no writeup whatsoever on what would be different now, and I couldn't even determine how general the info was..

Being a newbie has its drawbacks.

Spent this morning setting up FreeBSD 9.3 in a VBox, and will read thru that post of yours in greater detail.
