The Readme, originally attached to the plugin:

Dublicate2 v0.4,

Dublicate2 is a Moray v3.2/v3.3 Plugin, giving a new duplication dialog.
The duplication of the objects is randomised, with adjustable values for
the area, the sizing and the rotation The objects will be created randomly
with a given seed value and added to a csg group. In V0.2 there's a new
option to place the duplicated objects. You can use certain objects as
boundaries for the randomised creation. Supported boundary objects in v0.3
are:
  Cube
  cylinder
  torus
  sphere
  disc
  Heightfield (Only TRUE-COLOR TGA files)
  cone

when using a heightfield, the objects will be created on the surface of
this heightfield, using the appropriate z-value
