Portable support #2

Closed vevycl closed 1 month ago

vevycl commented 1 month ago

Hi and thanks for the app.

I wish the app supports portable mode where it reads and writes settings to a file/directory next to the executable itself. This way it can be run from USB, for example.

A good way to do it for the app to see its path. If not in Program Files, then act portable.

Thanks for raising this issue. From my understanding, we can do something like this: if there is a settings file in the same directory as the app executable, then pick that setting; if not, use default locations for the settings file. And for initialization, I will give an example settings file in README. Please let me know if this alternative approach can solve your problem.

That can work too. Thanks.
