While it has taken me longer to get this prototype working than I would have liked, here it is. From the read me:
================== The What and Why: For years plug in developers have run into a serious impediment in making plugins; namely, there was a limitation on what përs resources the plugin maker could use if they did not want the player to have to create a new pilot file. If the plugin maker attempted to use a përs resource not present when the player's pilot file was first made, the përs added by the new plugin would never appear.
It is not feature complete (won't activate spob defense fleets, allow drag-n-drop of pilot files, etc), but I am hoping for input before I proceed. (url="http://"http://phair.csh.rit.edu/~seant/EV/bitChanger/")http://phair.csh.rit.../EV/bitChanger/(/url)

Excellent. I've been looking forward to this.
I'll download it and tell you what I think.

Weird. You are correct. All of the resource data was stripped from it. My stupid mistake. I have reuploaded the material compressed with stuffit

They say that no news is good news.
I'll continue with development and get spob defense fleets working.

Down the road a ways, I can see that this utility is going to be very useful to me.
On to glory, Seant! Best of luck; thanks for your work.
