Plugins aren't written in any kind of special language, they are just collections of triggers, aliases, timers, variables and scripts that are saved as XML. Scripts however are written in different scripting languages, the default one being Lua. To create a plugin you can try creating an empty new world, adding a couple of simple triggers to it, then clicking on File->Plugin Wizard option in the menu to export the contents of that world as a plugin.
