There doesn't seem to be a difference as I would need to add a line to each profile (or the other way around) still. Granted I would then only need to change one line if I wanted to edit the path again, but the initial work would be the same plus it makes the profiles file more complicated. I still think that option should have it's home in config.xml, looking at all the available workarounds the client seems what I gonna try. An update would then mean reinstalling/updating it with a different settings.xml (containing the new path) and then change the path. Kind Regards, Florian T. |
