Is the second patch replace the first one or do I need to merge both

 Hi Adam,
 Please note that current paths are actually correct for previous
 versions of MacOS. I'm not sure exactly when the change happened but the
 paths you are suggesting are valid for latest versions of MacOS and kicad.
 Maybe it's worth to add a note stating that these paths are correct for
 latest versions of the software.
 Also there is a simple way to get all valid paths from kicad itself, I
 have it described in the wiki for my plugin here
 https://github.com/openscopeproject/InteractiveHtmlBom/wiki/Installation

 > Above list may be out of date or inaccurate for your OS
 version/distribution. You can get full list of directories that pcbnew is
 scanning for plugins by running this in scripting console:

 import pcbnewprint pcbnew.PLUGIN_DIRECTORIES_SEARCH


 Having that in the docs would be useful too.

 Andrew

Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Fixup documentation path for macOS scripting plugins

[Andrew Lutsenko]

That sounds good to me.
There is also that MacOS security feature that turns /Applications/...
paths into some obfuscated virtual paths (as seen by the app, even though
those dirs don't exist) and that may spook an uninformed average user. So I
would also add that it's best to stick to the paths that are within user
directory ($HOME on linux/mac, %APPDATA% on Win).

[Adam Wolf]

Hmm.  Interesting.  I don't know what package ever had
/Applications/kicad/Kicad/Contents/SharedSupport/scripting/plugins missing
a .app in /Applications/kicad.app/, but the Mac package has had a lot of
history.

What's the next step here... add some words saying "Modern macOS installs
likely have them at X, but if it doesn't seem like these are right, try
running

import pcbnewprint pcbnew.PLUGIN_DIRECTORIES_SEARCH

in the scripting console"?
