How should I use register_setting, add_settings_section, & add_settings_field in my plugin’s options page?

I wrote a tutorial for Incorporating the Settings API in WordPress Themes.

The only real difference for Plugins is that you’ll use add_settings_page() instead of add_theme_page(). The rest should pretty much be the same.
