	   ( Widget parent )

     void dmPMDestroyManager

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     dmPMCreateManager creates a special effects plugin-manager.  It allocates
     and manages a list	of plugins that	applications can use.

     If	the application	does not have a	widget,	then passing in	NULL allows
     the plugin-manager	to create a widget if necessary	(i.e. if any of	the
     plugins require a GUI).

     dmPMDestroyManager	destroys the special effects plugin-manager, and frees
     all the plugins that were initialized by the plugin-manager.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

     dmPMCreateManager will return a pointer to	a DMplugmgr if successful, or
     will return NULL if it failed.
