I understand completely and you were quite right under the
circumstances.

Ah, yes. I sort of realised that as I was getting to the end of
the message. You do need the two parts of the update together if
making the names regular is to be done. I do think there is some value
in cleaning them up, if only because it is simpler to explain.

Ooh, ooh, I know that one! It's becuase it is a plugin that requires
platform support file (sqW32Drop.c or whatever you've namedit) and it
wasn't found. The most obvious cause would be that you simply
didn't have a suitable directory for the VMMaker to find the file in;
other possibilities that I've already suffered from include things like
a tiny misspelling, permissions set wrong, or even naming the directory
something like DragDropPlugin instead of DropPlugin and forgetting that
some plugins are not named as the class. Which by the way is something
that might be fixed to our benefit.
