Thanks Karl. I understand the differences between them, but that doesn't explain the anomolous behaviour. As to why I would use relative paths, I always use them whenever possible as it makes code reorg a lot easier. I did not realize one should not do that for TG. What is the reason to have tg use absolute paths that are not in sync with the host filesystem? Seems confusing.
