Hi all!

I decided to create a topic containing all scripts I wrote. I don't know if it's a good idea, but I like it... Here we go!
For many, these scripts have been published on this site. Some were created as a result of requests. Many have evolved as a result of testing and suggestions, thank you to all who participated.

EDIT 20120202: Change topic title (thank you Dan Rathbun)

Now that has been a great effort!! Thanks for your kind contributions. This one needs a bookmark....and what a valuable deposit....cheers to you!!

[Chris Fullmer]

I've noticed a bunch of the script-writers have links to all their plugins in their sigs - beneath each of their posts. So you can always check there too Bruce if you're looking!
