missing material panel

My Maxwell Material panel isn't showing up in Sketchup. The MaxwellExport.pdf only contains the cryptic phrase:
"You need to enable the panel first-go to Ruby MaxwellExport menu (in Plugins) and select "Enable Material Panel"
There's nothing like this in my dropdown choices under Plugins in the menubar. All I have are Plugins/MaxwellExport/Camera, Environment, HDRI, Object Properties, Material Panel, Help, & About Maxwell Export.
I also looked in C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Google SketchUp 6\Plugins. The MaxwellExport.rb file is in there. Am I supposed to edit the rubyscript in this file?

"Material Panel" is the correct entry in the Plugin/Maxwell Export menu to enable the panel (I am fixing the manual as well). However keep in mind that this will not open the material panel directly - it will enable it so that it will show next time you select an "In Model" material in SU Materials panel.
