You could do this but it requires 2 things that are rather undesirable:
-You have to go through all the unofficial part to make sure that all of
them had the word "Unofficial". Since the unofficial library currently has
almost 1000 parts, this could be extremely time consuming.
-You would have to unzip the unofficial parts into the \PARTS and \P
directories. This is not a good idea for a number of reasons.
Also, you don't have to hack the MLCad.grp file. You can add groups from
within MLCad itself. Go to Setttings->Groups->Group Configuration. Once
the popup appears, type in the name and search string for the new group and
click OK.
