Chris Cason would know, but it /is/ irritating to say the least. I do miss the
good ol' days when everything was in the application directory.

It's ironic to me that INI files (INItialization files) used to be stored in
their application directory and would determine the initialization of various
app settings, and now they're scattered all around the hard disk and mapped to
some crazy registry keys in multiple places and for multiple users, so the app
has to look up the keys that tell it how to find the files that tell it how to
initialize its settings... /sigh
