Need suggestions on which plugin to install from eclipse market?

Question

I am developing a new plugin in eclipse. I need a plugin from internet (for eclipse, of course) which I can dissect and understand its implementation (by looking into plugin.xml etc.). It would help me create my own plugin. I want your help in suggesting some plug-ins which I download and dissect, so that i can use that logic to make my own plugin?

I will now give an insight to my proposed plugin::: My plugin would take in some input via a GUI interface from the user and then I should be able to convert all the user input into a text file and trigger a perl script. It sounds sloppy, but I am completely new to Eclipse and Plugins.

I just need some suggestions from you experts.

Thanks a lot!!!

If you download either the Eclipse Classic package or the Eclipse for RCP Developers package, they include source for Eclipse itself. You can use the Eclipse plugins themselves as examples.
