Quote - 1) I assume that  'init.pyc' should go in Runtime/Python/addons/EZMat ? (I read somewhere in this thread that it can be ANY runtime, and doesn't have to be the main one where the poser.exe resides)

Yes, that is correct.

Quote - 2) I assume the 'Plugins' folder should be under 'EZMat' and that all the 'ez_BBAsphalt.py', etc files should go in there?

The plugins folder can be anywhere on your computer system. You can have multiple folders too. On the EZMat Materials tab there is an option to select the folder containing the plugins you want to work with. on the Preferences tab you can preselect several folders for convenient access.

Quote - 3) What about the CFG files ('EZBrick presets.cfg', etc)? In 'EZMa't or 'EZMat/Plugins'?

Save them anywhere. Select a plugin, then choose the 'import presets' button to select the appropriate file. After you have imported the presets you can delete the cfg files.

Quote - 4) I've put the tutorial and developer stuff into separate 'Tutorial and 'Developer folders to keep them separate - I guess that's okay?

Yes

Quote - 5) Now how do I go about firing it up? Do I go 'File > Run Python Script' and select init.pyc, or what ?

Windows>Addons>EZMat

aRTBee is organising the production of some documentation for EZMat. From the early drafts I've seen I think it is going to be excellent.
