This is the path to the CKEditor Script. If you put your /ckeditor folder in a non-standard location set this here. Otherwise the extension should detect this for you.

A simple example would be to set a Basic toolbar like this:
CKEDITOR.replace(name,
{
toolbar : 'Basic'
});When CKEditor loads
This sets when an CKEditor box is loaded.

On single click - the editor loads when there is a single click in a textarea
