My first Nuke plugin

My first Nuke plugin was a success! Yesterday I spent some time with another technical comper, and we went through and figured out how to pipe color information into separate channels. Yay! Unfortunately our instruction was very short, overall it was four hours, including two hours of C++ introduction. The last time I coded was in CS class back in high school, and we were doing PASCAL and Fortran. My, how times change. And of course, C++ isn't the easiest to pick up, especially after only two hours. But now I know the workings of how Nuke uses the code to create plugins, and I'll be going through the NDK extensively to see how everything works. It's a little bit greek to me, but it'll change as I get more in depth with creating tools. Sometimes it seems that plugin creation isn't necessary, as the gizmo creation in Nuke is very powerful as it is! I'm hoping that if I can create plugins, they'll work quicker than the equivalent gizmo. We'll see.
