I was thinking of using your minifig.ini file.  I like the extensibility
that it offers.  I think I could whip up something portable pretty quick

I have no idea what you mean by a META command based system.

Besides, my Minifig gen isn't even compatible with the current version of

Did something happen to the plugin interface that I don't know about?
Anyhow, I wrote a standalone wrapper executable that'll run any of the
old LDDP plugins so that's not really a problem for me.
