I'm trying to find a simple example on how to write an NPAPI plugin that will be bundled with my Chrome extension.

The thing I need to do with the NPAPI is simply to run an already existing local program that I have the local path for.

Could not find any simple examples that will allow me to do this.

  • Running an existing local program isn't specific to plugins. I'd look into [example plugins](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2652034/a-simple-hello-world-npapi-plugin-for-google-chrome) and how to start local programs separately, then put the two together. – Georg Fritzsche Jul 08 '12 at 17:18

The firebreath NPAPI framework seems to have decent documentation: http://www.firebreath.org/display/documentation/FireBreath+Home
