Global Commands Extension was posted a couple of times earlier.

Firstly under this subject  line via a DropBox link from another poster.

I then posted the official download link again under a more relevant subject line. The mod apparently  converted my text URL into a correct link.

Did you get this add-on via either route?

Hello David,

 

I'm not finding this addon, but am definitely interested in it. If

you've got a url that would be great or maybe the dev could put it on

the community addons page.

 

Thanks.

DAve.
