- Decompress and extract the provided *.tar.gz archive. - This will create a folder 'ProMimport', containing all files necessary. - Start the application by running the provided shell script 'start.sh'. - The import filter plugins delivered with your installation package are located in the 'Plugins' folder inside the 'ProMimport' directory. - Load the plugins (which are packaged in *.jar files) that you want to use from within the running app. For that, use 'Load filter plugin..' from the 'Filters' menu. - 3rd party plugins, or plugins developed by you, can be added to the application in exactly the same manner. - Once imported, filters are automatically added to the application's filter cache, and zre re-loaded on every successive startup. Further, all filter and application configuration data is transparently made persistent by the application. - Thus, after importing all filter plugins necessary, you can safely delete the 'Plugins' folder.
