Wordpress: custom links on plugin page

Since WordPress 2.8, you can easily add your own links to the plugin page. This can be useful to jump right to the settings of the plugin. Example code:

function set_plugin_meta($plugin_meta, $plugin_file, $plugin_data, $status){
if (plugin_basename(__FILE__)!=$plugin_file) return $plugin_meta;
return array_merge( $plugin_meta, array( sprintf( '&lt;a href="options-general.php?page=%s"&gt;%s&lt;/a&gt;', $plugin, __('Settings') ) ));
}
add_filter( 'plugin_row_meta', 'set_plugin_meta', 10, 2 );

Two other interesting plugin hooks are:

do_action( 'after_plugin_row', $plugin_file, $plugin_data, $status );
do_action( "after_plugin_row_$plugin_file", $plugin_file, $plugin_data, $status );

These are both run after the row was printed.
