Thank you. I thought something along that line might be the problem. The instructions say to copy the script to the autoload folder, then gives a command for automating the process.

I wasn't sure I could use that on my system, so I simply copied the script and pasted it into the autoload folder.

Maybe I should just have tried the command. 🙂
