Locating resources for an applet has never been a problem, and life

That's why ya gotta put 'em into a standard location, such as 'asup'
or 'pref'.
Which is fine if one is completely in control of the environment.
Otherwise, it's just a little more reliable to keep it self-contained.
One could use an installer, but people don't like them. I prefer
self-containment for the same reasons Omni likes its non-installer
installs (as has been mentioned in public). That goes double for
scripts--no one wants to have junk installed all over his system just
for what is essentially one new application command.
