You are not really missing anything. When I started updating the
front-end and rebuilding the c# binary I didn't want to touch the perl
code as I only wanted to change one thing at a time, and perl is the
thing I know the least about.
I think the original inguz programme had been written so it could be
used stand-alone like sox for example, and as such it has its own
configuration folders. Added to this the plugin installer did not really
work properly, so it requires the user to hack around setting up folders
and downloading binaries, in order to work. 

So literally the 2 areas that I want to standardise are, where to put
the binary and where to locate the plugin preferences. 

If I can get this working, I might ditch Inguz as the binary and replace
it with CamillaDSP as this seems more flexible and uses less resources.
But
