Using custom LIB.DIR with Dynamic C 10

Now it=E2=80=99s my turn to ask for help.  I haven=E2=80=99t worked on a Dy=
namic C project in a long time, and I=E2=80=99m wondering what people are d=
oing for version control, custom project files and custom libraries.

My initial attempts to add a custom LIB.DIR to my project have run into roa=
dblocks of absolute paths.  It appears that Dynamic C uses its directory as=
 the base path for relative paths, and there isn=E2=80=99t anything in the =
documentation about specifying paths relative to the project file.

I had hoped that a .LIB file in the same directory as the .DCP could work, =
but that isn=E2=80=99t the case.

Any tips from real-world Rabbit product development?  When I went back to m=
y old Dynamic C 8.61 project I saw that I had hard-coded absolute paths in =
my custom LIB.DIR.

-Tom
