Did you try "mythfrontend --help"? You can name the plugin as
an arg and it will startup as that plugin.

$ mythfrontend mythweather

It also uses the arg 0 trick so if you make a link to the binary
it will start as the plugin in the executable name.

$ cd /usr/local/bin
$ ln -s mythfrontend mythweather
$ cd
$ mythweather

--  bjm
