About this mod

This mod (script) will create symbolic links to your install directories on your desktop to make the use of TSL Patcher quicker and less painful.

Permissions and credits
So as we all know TSL Patcher is a great tool, but the problem is it only pulls a partial dialog box up which can
make it tedious to sort through folder structure - espescially for the
more complicated mod installs.

BLUF:
Run the script linked below, which will create shortcuts that look like
folders to your OS. You can delete them when you're done and it will
make installation easier as you can skip the clicking folder by folder,
and just scroll down.

Details:

Concept: I came up with a script which will create a symbolic link (basically a
shortcut your computer reads as an actual copy of the file) between your
install folder and a connection point on your desktop (which is the
default base directory for the TSLPatcher.

Script: This script users Windows Built-in Visual Basic (VB) script engine. If
you want to read the script line-by-line, then right-click and click
edit. This is the 'source code', which you can evaluate yourself or
send to a friend / colleague who knows computers if you want to evaluate
safety / security.

Symbolic Links: This is a function built into windows that essentially tricks your Operating
System into thinking a shortcut is the actual folder. You can execute
this function manually but it can be complicated so I have automated it
for you to prevent issues.Feel free to post here if you have any issues.
