OK, I've hacked together a little GUI, maybe that can help somebody.
Quite simple, though. You can get it on my page where the conduit
stuff is (http://plkrcond.extrareto.de), if it's of any use for
anybody.

I feel the idea is very good, as I anyway will have to go through all
the plucker.ini files probably to display a bit more info and allow
for advanced features.

Can I add more than one user to the user key in the ini file? Cool...
good to know :-)

Hm, I'd prefer a seperate key to make it a bit more clean - it allows
for one user to trigger building when he syncs, but will install the
built DB to all users in the user key. Like a centralized build for
all users on the current PC or something like this.

If it's reliable to get the RunSync path from the registry, it's no
problem to only store the RunHidden key and other conduit specific
information in the main ini. If the installer takes care that the path
is there, no problem.
