Re: Recommended Way to locate executable folder and preferences folder on Linux

I had an extended run at this today, and have managed to move the
install location of the executable and the preferences folder so that
they both now sit in the plugin folder structure as suggested.
I had to amend the program code too in order to correctly pick up the
path and saved configurations folder. I have thought of a more elegant
way of handling this but will leave that for another day.
I also need to do some testing on linux and may need to rebuild binaries
too.

I have an a couple of questions regarding the helper path and the
custom.conf file. 

The plugin script generates a custome.conf file which embeds Inguz into
the workflow. At the moment I am setting the application variable to the
full path/binary-filename. If I add the file location to the Helper
folders can I just use the binary-filename without the full path? I was
assuming that the the server was shelling out to the operating system
and that the OS wouldn't know about the path.
