On *nix we specify "HOME" with
homepath_ = GetEnvPath("HOME");
On Windows, where $HOME doesn't exist, we currently use:
homepath_ = GetEnvPath("HOMEDRIVE") + GetEnvPath("HOMEPATH");
Trouble is, this doesn't seem very robust. The lyx_init.txt output that I
posted earlier this morning indicates that
HOMEDRIVE=C:
HOMEPATH=\
LOGNAME=Angus
USERNAME=Angus
USERPROFILE=C:\Documents and Settings\Angus
The question is, where would an intelligent default location for the user
.lyx dir be? I'd suggest that it should be
C:\Documents and Settings\Angus\.lyx
That would suggest code:
homepath_ = GetEnvPath("USERPROFILE");
Thoughts?
