Summary: Cannot find init.scm

Initial Comment:
Version Gerbv 2.5.0 (windows build)
OS  W2K

If gerbv is launched from a desktop icon all is well. It opens and I can then 
open a project file.

If gerbv is launched from the command line, the app is launched and all appears 
well. I can open a layer.
Alas when I try to open a project it fails  with the message:

Problem loading init.scm (No such file or directory)
could not read C:\saving.gvp[-1]

Placing the project file in the same directory as the layers made no difference.

Running gerbv from the command line with a full path to the .exe  works and I 
can then open projects. 
If gerbv.exe is launched using the system found path to the executable then the 
issue arises.

Hello!

Win2k is an old beast that is supported by mere mercy, see for instance
bug report 3197747.
Gerbv searches for init.scm in the following places and order:
1) According to the variable $GERBV_SCHEMEINIT
2) BACKEND_DIR which is defined during compilation. In Linux/Debian/Ubuntu
it is defined to /usr/share/gerbv/scheme/.
3) The same directory as the binary directory.
4) Current working directory.

I do not know how Win2k resolves all these directories.

Tell me how it goes.

Best regards,
/Stefan

All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security 
threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes 
sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
