The docs seem unclear to me on where exactly to path the various files. I'm using Poser 6.

Here's the folder path on my system.

C:Program FilesCurious LabsPoser 5RuntimePythonTDMTTDMT_script

The folders and the files they contain should be placed within your Poser Runtime folder to mimic their placement in the zip file.  Specifically, a folder named "TDMT" needs to be placed in the "Python" folder inside "Runtime".  The script will look for this folder and read and write files from/to the folder while running.  The script folder named "TDMT_script" needs to be placed inside the new "TDMT" folder inside RuntimePython.

Got it now thanks. I think we're rolling. What I'm looking to do is cull excessive geometry out of the eyelash, ear and inner mouth region and bring down the number of vertices about 50%. Most of the head geometry that the existing morphs cover will remain intact. I have tested it and it does work. Hopefully your script will precisely what I'd like it to do. :O).

"Hopefully your script will precisely what I'd like it to do. :O)."
Your use of the script is really the only one so far for which the process seems to be both fairly easy and 100% successful in tests.  JoePublic has used the script (and earlier versions of the same script) to do exactly what you seem to be doing.  I hope it works well for you.

And the script would not have gone anywhere without the help of Spanki, svdl, and others -something I just try to point out in every thread about the script....  :-P
