Nice one!. However I am not always running in a servlet, sometimes it is a
stand-alone program.
However I do like the suggestion of using the class loader to locate it.
The true answer, of course, is that Torque.init() should itself search the
classpath. Add it to the TODO list.

another alternative when you initiate Torque in a servlet is to get the
actual full path from the servlet:
ServletContext ctxt = getServletContext();
String path = ctxt.getRealPath("/")+"/WEB-INF/conf/";
Torque.init(path+"Torque.properties");
