<p class="MsoNormal">Yes, thanks, I did at least manage to read through the FAQ, but, unfortunately, none of the mentions of 'plugins' was helpful for my questions. I can search through the source to find the plugins that come with Rcpp, but I'm not familiar
enough with the necessary mechanisms to know what hooks to look for or use to be able to list currently registered plugins.

Have you found this obvious answer yet:<br>
<br>
Rcpp FAQ Question 3.6<br>
"How do I write a plugin for inline and/or Rcpp Attributes"<br>
<br>
My pdf reader shows me 36 hits for 'plugin' in that Rcpp FAQ document.<br>
<br>
As for 'what exists': there is no central registry as packages can bring<br>
their own; the mechanism is such that when a package loads it can register<br>
upon load. You could use the same hooks to a) scan all your installed (but<br>
not yet loaded) packages and b) list currently registered plugins. I don't<br>
think anybody has written such a helper yet.<br>
<br>
As for 'what is in it': "Use the source, Luke." <br>
