how to import/read data from one plugin to another?

[arun kumar]

hi,

i have a translation plugin (a libpurple plugin) which mainly
translates the text typed by a user. Now i want to know the language
to which the text needs to be translated. this is present in another
plugin called lan_preference plugin( which is a pidgin plugin) this
plugin is an UI  (similar to text replacement plugin ) where a user
can simply enter the language. Now i want to read the language
specified by the user in lan_pref plugin from translation plugin to
use it to translate the text.......


any help please ?



cheers,
arun
