Hi Bob,

I have long thought this is a good idea and would be willing to donate
time to do maybe 30 scripts or so... if there is more widespread support
such an initiative then let's go...

I have set up the infrastructure with a function in
includes/MiscFunctions.php for


function CheckMods($ScriptName) {
     if (file_exists('mods' . $ScriptName)){
         return '/mods' . $ScriptName;
     } else {
         return $ScriptName;
     }
}

and modified MainMenuLinksArray.php to use the new function .... of
course every script will have links all over which need to be modified
too... so a bit of a mission ahead!!

I have add a mods directory under the root directory for modified
scripts - also added a mods/includes directory for modified scripts to
use for includes and for modified DefineXXXXClass.php scripts.

Anyway for those willing to contribute for the greater good who consider
this to be a worthy initiative then maybe I could split up the scripts
and we work through the scripts together? If you can give some time to
this let me know and I will set out a plan.
