Hi,
I am not sure. What is the script id? I might be able to check it on the
server (no promises however).

Also is there a reason, you are using the tgz/tar.gz extension? That is
always a bit troublesome to extract on Windows, so just curious if this
works with a zip extension or a simple .vmb for vimball.

Thanks,
Chris
