The plugin and metafiles code needs many improvements, but Christoph does not have the expertise to understand what those needed improvements are because he hasn't invested the work into understanding the code. Christoph is a bright and clever young fellow, who just hasn't had the years of study of the field yet. I wish him well, and away.;-) Hans
