WordPress plugin API
From Wiki @ Karl Jones dot com
In WordPress, the plugin API is an application programming interface (API) for working with WordPress plugins.
This page talks about the API documentation (Application Programming Interface) available for WordPress plugin developers, shows how developers of plugins can use them.
This article assumes that you've read Writing a Plugin, giving an overview (and many details) of how to develop a plugin. The same speaks specifically about the API "Hooks", also known as "Filters" and "Actions", used by WordPress to set your plugin at runtime.
These hooks can also be used in WordPress themes.
