Append the "usersetup.mel" file ...

I just purchased MentalCore for Maya and I've run into a roadblock ... for me anyway. It appears I need to append the usersetup.mel file and this is not my strong suit. Can anyone walk me through this.

Find your userSetup.mel file; it should be in Documents > maya > version > scripts (you're on a mac? so it might be different)
Open that file in a text editor (it's just a plain text file)
Copy and paste that text at the end of the document
Save it.

If you don't have that file, create one with that name and paste the text into it. Save it as userSetup.mel in your scripts folder.

I was on the beta for that; there's some neat stuff in it.

I have the line in userSetup.mel in Macintosh HD>Users>Shared>Autodesk>maya>scripts>userSetup.me l

Hope this helps.
