Hey carl,

Just a thought, do those dll really need to be under app/bin?
Cuz frankly I would not really appreciate a tool that would mess with
the original install.  I mean I don't see why you would need to do so as
XSI will load those DLL even though they are under Addons.  It's a
matter of being able to understand where a problem lies when it arise.
And personnally I wouldn't like to have those custom dll's under the
install path.

Just my two cents.

Ludo.
