[JW Lua] JWLua Menu plugin

[Aaron Sherber]

Hi all,

I'm a longtime Finale user, newcomer to RGPLua.

Is this plugin still expected to work? I'm running FinWin25 on Windows 10.
When I drop it in a plugins folder and start Finale, I get an expected
dialog that the menu layout file was not found and would I like the plugin
to create one. When I click Yes and choose the folder to save in (where the
plugin is), I get an error "JWLuaMenu was unable to find %s. If it is
installed, try placing JWLuaMenu in the same folder as %s". I note that the
file wasn't actually saved, so maybe this is the issue

I created an empty file called JWLuaMenuLayout.txt, and when I restarted
Finale, the plugin was happy.

Next I spent some time populating the layout file the way I want it. I have
a "Lua" folder in my plugins menu, and my file starts out with "MENUNAME
Lua". But when I start Finale, I get an error "JWLuaMenu was unable to find
Lua. If it is installed, try placing JWLuaMenu in the same folder as Lua."
I don't quite understand this, but the plugin (and the layout file, and
RGPLuaWin) actually are in the Lua folder.

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Aaron.
