Topic: Need help writing a simple plugin that puts it's link in admin dashboard

[kratos]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me write a very simple wordpress plugin. I understand php decently, but wordpress's hooks and api's and such are beyond me atm.
Anyways, all I need is to be able to put a link in the top row of the admin dashboard, right after Options, like were wp-ratings puts it's link.
Then, when I click this link, it'll run my code that I have put in the plugin's file. That's it!

Anybody?

TIA

You need to take a look at http://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page to be specific, http://codex.wordpress.org/Adding_Administration_Menus
