A graphical way to install multiple versions of libreoffice on windows is
Separate Install GUI. It can be downloaded from:

Thanks. But (a) it's only for Windows (though that is important) and (b) 
developer Florian Reisinger has not looked at it for a while and a couple of 
links were broken. He was very responsive to email inquiries and fixed one link 
quickly, but the other one for SI-GUI support at nabble will not be so easy to 
replace.

Still, I want to use SI-GUI for Windows, if only to help others whom I'm 
introducing to LO. Meanwhile, though, I wanted to understand what what is 
needed for parallel installations, and the bootstrap variables were important 
to understand. It was worth pursuing this question just to get (from one of 
Regina's links) the following table:

        Bootstrap variable      Meaning
        $SYSUSERHOME    Path of the user's home directory (see osl_getHomeDir())
        $SYSBINDIR      Path to the directory of the current executable.
        $ORIGIN         Path to the directory of the ini/rc file.
        $SYSUSERCONFIG  Path to the directory where the user's configuration 
data is stored (see osl_getConfigDir())

I appreciate your reply.
Kind regards,
John
