Sorry for not giving any context.

My first task is to create a plugin to configure hidden services through
Vidalia. This would be done by adding the correct strings to .torrc file.

Vidalia alpha handles the .torrc file directly to modify Tor settings. It
has a plugin framework to allow users to interact with Tor. The
TorrcPrototype allows plugins to modify the .torrc file. It acts as a sort
of "bridge" between the PluginEngine.cpp and Torrc.cpp (which modified
.torrc file). value(), setValue() and getTorrcPath() are functions of
Torrc.cpp which I've so far got it to work through the plugin.

QtScriptDebugger is included in QtScript tools. It can be used to debug the
plugin. Embedding it into the Vidalia plugin engine would make writing
plugins easier.
