Module Description
This module currently presents two options to the user:
-Installing an extension from an archive (*.tar.gz or *.zip) that is on the user's computer. This is useful if one wants to test that their extension has packaged correctly without uploading their extension onto the Midas server. Additionally, this can also be used by labs to distribute their extensions on their own website (uploading the extension archive directly on their website) and users can install these extensions using this module. It is also possible to install an extension package directly from the extension manager (from the toolbar).
-Load a module that has not been loaded at the start-up of Slicer, while Slicer is running, without having to restart Slicer (limited to scripted python modules).
