Finder Plugin in Snow Leopard

Question

Since the Finder in Snow Leopard has been rewritten to use Cocoa instead of Carbon, I'd like to know if there's a new API to write Finder plugins. The old way involved writing a CFPlugin but this doesn't seem to work anymore.

If by plug-in you mean contextual menu, you can do this via the services API.

Is there any way to move my service up (above the Move to Trash)? – Parag Bafna Dec 01 '11 at 13:38

I believe they prefer that you write Services instead of Finder plugins now.
