Nazdarek [brian--hawley--bigfoot--com] yes I know, but I made it as quick hack I needed so it looks not very nice and is not as clever as the rest of 'require. I have to think about it better - looking for newest versions in given paths instead of loading first found script , saving itself with new paths added... It will take time, but the WORD was said - someone NEEDS paths :)
