Did that. That works. But that requirement is broken - it means that the
program cannot be easily ported from one machine to another without a bunch
of extra code.

Now, granted, this brokenness is really a reflection of Microsoft's design.
And presumably someone is getting paid good money for personally dealing
with the brokenness. But that someone is not me. I'd be inclined to spend
good money to ISI to get this one fixed, but that's going to have to wait
on me and my distractable set of priorities because right now I'm between
jobs (working cut-rate, so I'm not going to starve, and with a bit of money
saved up so I'm not desperate or anything, but also spending serious time
thinking about myself and my own priorities).

Thanks,
