Using ../../ as part of the path embedded in a program or a script is _very bad_ practice in my experience. People unfamiliar with Unix have a hard time to debug it when there is a problem. I've seen this elsewhere and causes lots of frustration and numerous support calls. Shell environment provides variable HOME which can be used for the starting point for working directory. I use it in every bash or python script. If it's not set, it can be added to .bashrc or system wide configuration files. Special variable set in .bashrc is used for applications sometimes but I don't like that either because some apps don't tell you what it's supposed to be or people don't know how to fix it. Solution to this is a wrapper script with all the variables needed to start a working program. > this relative path resides.
