Thx for the feedback. It's obviously not that easy.I never stepped over
"commander" mode. 

What I'm gonna do is I'm packaging the toolbox with "absolute path"
assigned.

Now it's done according to standard: the files got a relative path 
assigned. When unpacking at the wrong place a  filetree will be built
from your actual location. Consequence: All the files end up at the
wrong place. That's why some people get in "trouble".

If done "absolute" you can unpack them wherever you want. 
They'll always end up at the right spot and you guys save 
one step.

Some background:
Packages are packed the relative way because it is more secure. If done
absolute, it can bear a security risk. Criminal minds could put nice 
little gadgets at any place they want to. My scripts are open. 
Everybody with scripting/programming skills can see what I'm doing. 
That should put all of you on the save side. ;)


Cheers
