Hi Peter, I would think that if there was an existing sub-dir in the NUKE path then it would be available to all users, but if the user had their own identically named sub-dir then it would come up as [user] . Meaning that you would respect the NUKE_PATH order of loading as to where was looked for first.
So you would still have to manually make the sub-dir /server/nuke/config/ToolSets/myShow, but after that if a user makes myShow/imatool.py it would go to the server location, not make a new myShow in their ~/.nuke. Would that make sense?
