Hi Brian, thanks a lot for tests and observations....

It took me some time to understand what you were telling me with _new().
I had thought of doing it the way it was originally but it has a major 
drawback:
The _new() procedure runs as soon as I instantiate out I wanted to be 
able to activate the plugin or not depending on certain states of my 
main program. So my solution allows to trigger the plugin start at the 
appropriate time.
For the rest (the dir....) totally agreed with you, I hadn't thought 
about it.
Remain to know, do you think it would be useful to create a gambas 
add-on for this kind of plugin management ????
