Hi Nick,

I found that the right path in windows is:
C:\KiCad\bin\scripting\plugins
where C:\KiCad is the main installation dir

I also found that in windows the script has a problem
When I make a qfp footprint (e.g. QFP 64) I get this error:
one of invalid character 'tab space'
because of the footprint name in library with a space 'QFP 64'
This error comes out when I try to associate a wrl models to the 
footprint I created.
This error has the same behavior also for BGA and DIP footprints

Thanks for the script... it saves a lot of time! :)
Maurice
