So for a start what do you think about:
Where should the library go? I was thinking of putting it in /var/lib/mseide/"version" similar to fpc. Put a symbolic link /usr/bin/mseide or /usr/local/bin/mseide to /var/lib/mseide/"verson"/apps/ide/mseide What about the user's .mseide/mseideli.sta file? Do any checks for it or just leave it alone? Do we leave that for the user to update their Settings -> Configure MSE manually? Anything else you can think of?
