IMHO, I would disagree. That is, using hardcoded full paths breaks portability.
The trick is using relative paths! In other words using paths "./dir/file" or
"../dir/file"
is very portable.
Furthermore, using relative paths helps finding the files, especially for larger
projects or with collaborative work. Thats is for editing.
Please, do not get me wrong, using the theproject environments does have
its caveats.

Keith.
