Notepad++ AppData plugin install Javascript error

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Instead of installing it to %programfiles%\Notepad++\Plugins; install to 
%appdata%\Notepad++\Plugins
2. Start notepad++
3. get this error:

---------------------------
Microsoft JScript runtime error
---------------------------
Path not found
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

This problem is probably just that it's running in a different dir than it 
expects to. It would probably be an easy fix, but the least that should be 
done is mention that it should only be installed to the install dir in the 
documentation (readme.txt in the zip).

Zen Coding for Notepad++ v0.6.1; Windows 7 64-bit; Notepad++ v5.6.8

Read a readme.txt file bundled with ZC plugin. You have to download and install 
Microsoft WSH

I forgot to mention that __it works ok__ if I install the plugin to my 
notepad++ install dir. (so 
no MS WSH installation necessary)

(also btw, notepad++ loads plugins and styles from the %appdata%\Notepad++ dir 
_as well_ as it's 
original install dir)

I'm saying it needs to be *explicitly stated* that the plugin *cannot* be 
installed to the 
%appdata% plugins dir.
-OR-
Fix the (probably relative) path reference so it *will* work in the appdata dir.

Well, this is an issue of NppScripting, not Zen Coding. I don't see any 
problems installing in npp's install dir.
A readme.txt file bundled with ZC for NPP explicitly stated that.
