AFAIK the standard says the folder could be changed with some envvar, but not in e17. That could be fixed, but we lack manpower to fix such marginal case :-/ Feel free to submit patches, we can guide you to have it done. As for those nasty .desktop for devices/storage, yes, it's annoying and it's on the TODO for e17 release. But nobody is working on it yet. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: [email protected] Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ enlightenment-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users
