Hi, I tried to use the option "--config" on Windows. It works but I am not sure if I did it in the most elegant way:
- I used the Perl script http://home.ix.netcom.com/~mchase/zip/M-Config.zip from Michael to write the config values from the registry to a file (I had troubles in directly reading the values. So I wrote the section to a file and converted this file with the script.) - Then I wanted to call Mahogany relatively to the current directory. This did not work. It seems that Mahogany wants an absolute path for "--config". However, it seems to accept both UNIX- and DOS-Syntax (dir/dir/file vs dir\dir\file) - The following paths must be absolute as well: FolderDir GlobalDir UserDirectory TreeSelection (?) AdbFilePath (?) [Settings/AdbEditor/AddressBooks] (?) - The paths mostly need double backslashes but there are exceptions where even DOS- and UNIX-conventions can be mixed up. My intention is to install Mahogany on a removable disk (USB) and use this harddisk on UNIX and Windows machines without any changes. To make this possible I think the following were useful: - Mahogany should accept normal slashes in paths (like Perl does) - it should accept relative paths like "./dir/dir" or "dir/dir" for FolderDir, GlobalDir, ... - the syntax "M.exe --config=file.cfg" should be ok Please tell me if there is a better way how I could accomplish my object.
