pidgin_quit() shouldn't try to save the list of loaded plugins, as they've all been unloaded by the time it is called. Saving the plugins at that point results in all loaded plugins being lost when Pidgin is restarted now that the preferences are saved at shutdown.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the HOWTOs in the
"Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
