+10 again. It shouldn't be that difficult to separate the location of system-wide read-only files from the location of user-specific files. I'd even be more than satisfied with a solution where the location of user-specific files had to be specified as a system property by changing idea.sh. As it is, I'm running IDEA on one system using a LD_PRELOAD library hack that intercepts certain library calls (open, stat, and so on) and rewrites paths according to a set of rules in order to separate the user-specific files from the others... _______________________________________________ Eap-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.jetbrains.com/mailman/listinfo/eap-bugs
