A brief scan of the the info on the JPL ephemeris files it looks like
direct access from the resource file system may not be the best place
since the data can only be accessed from Fortan functions and they
will not be able to read the QFile device necessary to access the Qt
resource file system. OTOH the resource file system is a handy place
to distribute binary files as they can be copied to the file system at
application startup where the user writeable file locations are
established, this is not necessarily a known location at install time
especially on non-Windows systems.
I should also say that we don't currently install anything to a
read-only data directory but such a place does exist on all platforms
and we can have the CMake build/install/package make use of it. It would
be somewhere system wide on *nix systems like /usr/share/WSJT-X/... we
do have something similar for the user guide so it's not a big change.
