What were you trying to do?
	I was trying to add a plugin within my account, by putting the
correct files in .netscape/plugins

What's wrong:
        Netscape doesn't recognize anything in the .netscape/plugins 
directory (and i don't know how to get it to recognize it)

What should have happened:
        Maybe it should have let me add the plugins?  I'm not actually
sure...  but it doesn't even show that the plugins exist...

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
        Readme files for the plugins seem to infer that once I copy the
files to my .netscape/plugins directory, they should be recognized by
netscape (yes, I did close netscape before doing the plugins thing)
