* Manual Installation
Copy the Melscripts to the "scripts\startup" sub-directory of Maya,
and the bitmap files to the Maya "icons" directory.
Copy 3DxMaya.mll to "bin\plug-ins"
Copy the 3DxHelp directory to "docs\ext"

That's all!

* Loading the plug-in

- First use of the plug-in:
i) In order to use the 3DxConnexion device, you must make sure that 3DxWare/Xdriver is running;
ii) Start Maya.

Maya automatically loads the usersetup.mel which in turn starts the 3Dconnexion support for the device.
The MagellanStartup.mel should now be loaded and a button with the 3Dxconnexion logo is displayed in the
status line. You may if you wish drag and drop this button to another shelf.
Clicking on the button will open/close the 3Dconnexion Maya GUI.
Should you have a usersetup.mel in your user local directory then MagellanStartup will not have executed.
To start the device support execute "MagellanStartup" from the script editor. To have MagellanStartup
automatically execute when Maya is started then add the line

MagellanStartup;

to your usersetup.mel
