Is it possible to use two different versions of drivesync for two different google accounts? #42

In the src, it looks like I can easily change the credentials file and the configuration folder. Can I also change the name of drivesync in the src, and then create two applications, (1) drivesync (for the original Google account) and (2) Xdrivesync (for the second Google account)? Or do I not even need to change the name, but instead just run the program from within two different folders?

I am NOT a programmer, so I may completely misunderstand what is going on!

@peepingThomist Hi, I haven't tried this out but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Just make sure to keep two versions of DriveSync and change all the relevant paths in the source or confg file (meaning the path of the drive itself, the manifest, the log file, the lock file and the credentials). If you need help with this, let me know and if you're successful, I'd also be curious to hear about how it works. Good luck!
