[gaim-migrate @ 8821] Since Gaim now shows plugin descriptions, this alters the Tcl API to collect them at registration time. NOTE THAT THIS CHANGES THE TCL API. Not that anyone uses it, but now I won't forget. Plugin registration will have to be changed in existing plugins, and a summary added ... see the appropriate part of the TCL-HOWTO for details. committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>

 variables or procedures declared in the script.  In practice this is
 not a problem, as the only thing this procedure should do is return a
 simple list containing five items: the name of the script, its version
-number, a short description, the author, and a web page.  For example:
+number, a summary (just a few words) of its function, a short (longer
+than the summary, but no more than a couple of sentences if possible)
+description, the author, and a web page.  For example:
