CEPT Plugins

CEPT Plugins

The idea of CEPT is to provide a reasonably user-friendly interface for any custom Jython script you want.  You 100% are required to have the core CEPT interface script, but not all the plugins.  Each user may have a completely different set of scripts that work for them.  The idea is really to allow each user to have tools that are important to them.

If you make your own you can easily add it to the CEPT interface (button or menu) provided you follow the framework provided here (instructions provided below).  We’d love you to share (free or paid) these scripts for others to use, but crucially you don’t have to.
