A while back I was looking into getting some data from the karaoke plugin (Singer - Song history). I searched for the post but was unable to find it. But it was recommended that I could try to develope a plugin for myself.
Well, I'm going to give it a shot. I've had some C++ education, and I write bash scripts frequently, so hopefully the learning curve won't be to bad.
I see that MS has released an Express version of Visual. The wiki says that Visual 2010 will not work. I found 2008 Express, is this enough to develope plugins?

Do not forget to install the Windows SDK too. I'm not sure the Express edition includes it (contrary to Visual Studio).

The SDK in the Wiki, or something from MS?
