Mozilla Firefox uses add-ons. World of Warcraft uses Addons. Seems to use add-on and addon but addon seems to be the primary one. Kodi uses Add-ons, but similarly to Mozilla, uses addons in URL. React also uses add-ons, but leaves out the dash for code and URLs. Gravity Forms uses Add-Ons in text and add-ons in URL. Ninja Forms also uses Add-Ons, but has extensions in the URL. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/about https://mods.curse.com/addons/wow http://mcpedl.com/category/mods/addons/ https://kodi.tv/addons https://facebook.github.io/react/docs/addons.html http://www.gravityforms.com/add-ons/ https://ninjaforms.com/extensions/ Wikipedia prefers plug-in and add-on, but e.g. QGIS and Mozilla Firefox uses plugins. I would say that plugin corresponds to addon. Mozilla divides add-ons into extensions, themes, and plugins (plugins being phased out). Addon is also a Hebrew name. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_(computing) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Add-on_(Mozilla) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addon GRASS GIS also uses extension in g.extension. Plugin seems to be appropriate to me in GRASS GIS for GUI where the g.gui.* module names are captured in Console and opened as window of the GUI as opposed to starting a subprocess.
