Have you experimented a little with the "Environments" concept
recently introduced ? This addresses the above issue. Infact,
I am never comfortable to start hbIDE from some already
configured environment. Just play with it and let me know
if it works as intended or not OR some more work is required.
Viktor, I have introduced the placeholder in "Properties" dialog
under "Environments" tab which holds this variable by default
if one is assigned, or, you can override if you want another one.
But then I ran into troubles when I used hbMK2 from this path.
I do not know what went wrong, so I included
{content} set PATH=_to_my_harbour_bin;%PATH%
and everything went fine. May be we need to tune it further.
