custom multi-attribute paint tool

I have recently made this tool which automaticly finds multi-array attributes on objects (paintable only) and adds a custom part under Maya paint attribute UI. I have a multi-target custom blendShape which I can paint with this tool now. It`s scripted with python apart from user defined context commands which had to be MEL (wrappers to python).

Robot 90. anniversary

It was 90 years on 25th january when a word "robot" came public, which is today often used only as "bot". Czech author Karel Capek came with this name in 1921 in his play "R.U.R." to name artificial inteligent workers. "Robot" origins from czech word "robota", which is a term for labour work.
