What I meant to say is that there is no need to abort the initialization if the directory pointed by $HOME doesn't exist; it is possible to write PhysicsFS-based applications that don't use $HOME at all. What is so special about $HOME that PhysicsFS needs to check (only) whether it exists or not? Note that the initialization works perfectly fine if $HOME is _not_ defined, or if $HOME exists but is _not_ readable/writeable, so I would expect the same behaviour if $HOME doesn't exist. (Besides, ensuring the existence of $HOME during the initialization doesn't guarantee that it will be present later on... What if someone removes it after launching and initializing the program?) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
