Thank you Scott, i did refer to that but i was trying to figure out a way to create a new plugin similar to the linkplugin JS  with the required customizations. I somehow think Link plugin for touch UI is located at /etc/clientlibs/granite/coralui2/optional/rte/js/core/plugins/LinkPlugin.js, but unsure.

Hi 

"LinkPlugin.js" is the things your are looking for.

To provide a new plugin in RTE, a new clientlib will have to be created. In the js file, the intended functionality of button can be implemented in ExtJs. In CSS file, the appearance/image of thee button can be specified. Then the newly created clientlib can be registered as a plugin for RTE by using following line :

CUI.rte.plugins.PluginRegistry.register("pluginName",ClientlibName.PluginName.Plugin);

The entire process has been described step by step AT :- http://experience-aem.blogspot.in/2014/02/aem-cq-56-extend-richtext-editor-add-new-plugin-pullquote.html

Overwriting " /etc/clientlibs/" is not a good practice.

The problem comes with upgrades:
- unchanged defaults should be upgraded
- customer changes however should not be overwritten
- but the new product version should be kept available, so the customer can look at it & upgrade his version manually

 

Thanks and Regards
