PitBull Unit Frames 3.0
Please note that PitBull3 is no longer being actively developed. On top of lack of active development itself, it's based on the Rock framework which itself is no longer maintained either.
I strongly recommend that users migrate to PitBull4. You can not convert your config from PitBull3 and must reconfigure.
PitBull4 itself can be found at:
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/pitbull4.aspx
You can find guides for setting it up at:
http://www.wowace.com/addons/pitbull4/pages/guide/
And the FAQ here:
http://www.wowace.com/addons/pitbull4/pages/faq/
While PitBull4 is still in beta it is fully functional and has more features than PitBull3. It is actively developed on and bug fixes made regularly.
I do not plan on making any fixes to PitBull3 once Cataclysm releases. So you have plenty of time to make the migration.

PitBull is a Unit Frames addon that provides maximal customization and undergoes rigorous efficiency testing. It is created in a modular framework, which allows for mulitple authors to put their skills to work creating this great project.
It has support for many different kinds of units: player, target, pet, pet's target, target of target, target of target of target, focus, focus' target, party, party pets, party targets, party pet targets, raid, raid pets, raid targets, main tanks, main tank targets, main assists, main assist targets, etc.
Note: Almost all texts are configurable using the LibDogTag-3.0 format. See http://old.wowace.com/wiki/LibDogTag-3.0 for details or type '/dog' in-game.

Make every frame relative to the owner of the frame (eg. "Target" to "Target's target" to "Target's target target").
Thank you.
To DaveC: All the modules used to be in one 'Pitbull' folder when you unpacked the addon, now he's brought them outside of the folder, yet somehow left the Druidmanabar module behind in the main Pitbull folder. Go to your addon folder and open the 'Pitbull' folder, there you will see a folder called 'DruidManaBar', move that folder outside with the rest of your addons and the other modules (the other modules are all called 'Pitbull_something'), and finally rename the file 'Pitbull_DruidManaBar'. Then just make sure the module is enabled in game. Don't know if my reasoning is sound on this, but I got my Druid manabars back in this way.
also it appears to be clashing with my cowtip and borking the settings on it.
There are lots of menus so I am likely overlooking it.

Thx in advance.
When i use bartender4 my Unit Frames disappear and /pitbull does nothing, says its and incorrect command or something. When Bartender is disables pitbull works fine. Any idea what may cause this and how i can fix it?
