The simplest thing is to copy the source of an existing C plugin and
keep the skeleton. But unless you do very specific things that cannot
be done in NASL (multithread, asynchronous IO, connecting to a 3rd
machine, for example), you'd better write a NASL plugin. 
This is safer, easier to maintain, and you don't risk big 
incompatibilities when Nessus is upgraded.
