Yes, exactly. Does that mean I can't refer to any possible wrapper 
scripts (or the location of the actual scripts) in the manual when I 
first upload the package?

Thanks for the hint. I think that's already working. Depending on the 
nature of the given script the user is told to either be in the right 
working directory or supply the target file as an argument.
