Hi all,
I would like to get tuxguitar on my usb-key.
So i've installed the software on the pc (windows), i made à copy of the c:/progra~1/tuxguitar directory to my usb-key, and i uninstall again the software.
When i lauched tuxguitar from the key, everything goes fine, except that the config directory is created on the hard disk drive :(
Is there à way to move the location of this directory (.tuxguitar) to my key too?
Thanks.

Hello,
You can do that with the enviroment var: TUXGUITAR_CONFIG_HOME
You can edit the tuxguitar.bat file, and export that var fefore the java cmd line.
I don't exactly remember how do that under win32 ( but is possible )
As example, under GNU/Linux you can do:
export TUXGUITAR_CONFIG_HOME=YourNewConfigFolder
Under win32, it was something like:
set TUXGUITAR_CONFIG_HOME=YourNewConfigFolder
You can test that on a symbol system console..
and you can see if the var is correctly setted doing:
echo %TUXGUITAR_CONFIG_HOME%
Well, that was for run the tuxguitar.bat file.
For the exe file ( generated by the janel project ) , i don't know if it's possible set env bars.
But you can change the "user.home" java property.
TuxGuitar take: user.home + "/.tuxguitar" as user config folder.
So you can edit the .exe configuration file called "tuxguitar.lap" with a wordpad, and add on the first line:
-Duser.home=MyFolder
then, when you make 2 clicks to the .exe, your config folder must be maded on MyFolder/.tuxguitar/

Thank you, it works!
For the bat file, I launch if with the directory as first parameter. So I added in the bat file:
########################################
cd %1
set TUXGUITAR_CONFIG_HOME=%1%.tuxguitar
echo %TUXGUITAR_CONFIG_HOME%
########################################
(there is no parameter used in tuxguitar?)
For the exe file, i simply added like you said:
###############################
-Duser.home=H:/Apps/tuxguitar
###############################
at the end of the tuxguitar.lap
Is it possible to use a var in this file, like i've done in the batch file, because, as the software is on a usb-key, the directory may not be the same on every computer...
(usb-key is not mounted on the same drive)
(I put tuxguitar onto a framalauncher (see http://www.framakey.org/Firefox/Accueil), and it launch tuxguitar with a line like:
"%AeTrayMenuPath%....Appstuxguitartuxguitar.bat %AeTrayMenuPath%....Appstuxguitar")
Thanks,
Larsene

Hi,
i think, you don't need add the full path.
e.g: H:/Apps/tuxguitar/AnyFolder can be replaced by "AnyFolder"
when you run the .exe file ( or the .bat ) the folder where the launcher is, is the default path under windows ( as i remember )
I mean, if the .exe is on: "C:/lalala/test.exe"
and that exe make a new folder "MyFolder" ( without set the full path ), the folder will be created at "C:/lalala/MyFolder"
So i think you can try set
-Duser.home=MyUserHome
and the config will be created on
H:/Apps/tuxguitar/MyUserHome/.tuxguitar

Actually, you have to, as when you move the thumb drive across multiple computers, the drive letter changes. For example, if you moved it to my computer, it would be L:, not H:.
