Mike, I think the search path is a good idea. I _think_ that looking in the 'current' directory (the drawer which holds the 'project') first would be a VERY good idea. There are many programs for which 'configurations' would be more usefully 'applied' to projects than the tool. I offer as an example, an editor which MAY have different 'rules' for editing assembler versus C versus ARexx versus etc. I'm sure you can think of others which you use. One problem at this point is that it's difficult to test for the existance of a 'volume' without bringing up the _dreaded_ "Please insert volume XXX: in some drive" requestor. If we solve that, I think we can make everybody happy.
