Description
greetings!

many thanks go out to all the talented individuals who can program plug-ins for the nwn2 toolset! many of which are godsends! you all rock. :)

now, on to the complaints ;P i have seen this pattern happen time and time again -- and i KNOW you guys are programmers, not the technical writers! but a little standardization might be helpful here.

first, many plug-ins come with instructions or important information (like yatt's size measurements) on the vault page. but, not with any text or documentation with the file.
copying this information into a quick txt file and including it in your download would be very handy.

second, for those plug-ins that DO have txt files, they all seem to be named README.txt. guys, this is not helpful, especially when i want to extract all the text directions/info into the same directory where the dll and dat files are. (especially since it does not seem possible to have the toolset read plug-ins sub-directories, where everybody could have their own...!)

please name the txt file the same as the dll file. that way, we can tell which txt goes with which plug-in. and your readme.txt won't get overwritten by the next readme.txt file we download ;)


thank you, and have fun all you crazy nutty programmer types! :)
