Confirmation... setting the "Start In" field to match the "Target" field allows LH to use the heather.cfg in the Target directory, irrespective of where the shortcut is placed. Mike On 12/12/2016 06:44, Mike Millen wrote: On 11/12/2016 23:23, Alberto di Bene wrote: On 12/12/2016 12:00 AM,

Hi Arnold, I'm running windows pro 64bit, it installed in Program Files(x86). I made a shortcut on the desktop that points to heather.exe with the /3 switch because my lucent box is there on serial port 3.  Lady Heather auto detected and all is well. Many thanks to Mark and John for this

Hi Mark, Many thanks! I can report that it built without intervention on my Debian linux. I look forward to test it out on various receivers. For linux you probably want to set CFLAGS and include -g in the build. Running with valgrind does not come out clean, which is a good test to help

Yeah, that's probably something we should fix. Installation programs don't normally set that field at all. But when Heather's initial working directory isn't in the usual Program Files hierarchy, it tries to load the .cfg file from the same directory as the executable. This is something I do
