Just make a regular C# dll. The only problem is that you won't have access to the window information, user variables, registers, etc.

ICONICS2000, to be really honest, my opinion on having an nsis plugin in C# is not a great. Exept for you it's maybe the only option since you program in C#. You plugin DLL will be dependant on a lot of things installed on the OS and you will encounter numerous other issues.

If you can, write the pugin in C(++), or otherwise Delphi

(Plugin examples in wiki)

I do not want to discourage you to much, but consider alternatives if you can.
