Actually, believe it or not, it was because I had not figured out you could load dll’s from the drop-down menu, until not too long ago!
I knew about permissions issue early on. I guess I never paid attention to the *.dll extension in the load file dialog and did not connect one thing w/ the other. And after loading a program pack the mpi would disappear and I would be puzzled – like how do I get that back. I figured out the settings in the *.ini file early on, so I would just set it there, and just thought it was buggy! :) Well this is one case where it’s not a bug it’s a feature actually applies!!

I’d be cool w/ leaving it as an *.ini file. I see Luis has already said he could do that. So I will go w/ flow on that one.
