oops. one more time.
Not sure if this is still relevant to the current gear version but at an
early version I made a plugin that concatenated the gear location to the
syspath.
Here's the script. In my case I used a folder called modules in the
__sipath__ location. Ideally gear could be on a network drive and this
plugin located in a workgroup. It would save having to edit local files on
each machine.
