New plugin format!!!
I am getting irritated now.
Some plugins are outdated, and the new ones are lurking around in Bitbucket or Github.
I tred to download them but they are in php format.
And I tried to convert them into a plugin format with .txt format with that instructions
// Copy this file to a new name like abc_myplugin.php. Edit the code, then
// run this file at the command line to produce a plugin for distribution:
// $ php abc_myplugin.php > abc_myplugin-0.1.txt
What am i supposed to do? WHat should I do to update/install the new plugins.

Simplest thing to do might be to install the ied_plugin_composer. There’s a tool at the bottom of the plugin’s list tab that allows you to name a plugin and upload a file containing raw PHP. The Composer will create a plugin for you, from that code. Once saved, you can document the plugin and then use the export tools to save it in .txt, zipped .txt or plugin template format.
