Don't you think ciphon would improve faster with collaborative development?

Well, as numerous threads on c.l.p show, there is no real 'home directory'
on windows. Why don't you install ciphon with distutils, where the
top-level script would go into the python Scripts directory, and you
could also store the configuration there.
The problem with 'Program Files'\Ciphon is that this directory also
depends on the windows version/language/maybe other stuff.
To be sure, this directory has to be retrieved from the registry
or with a win32 API call. For example, in german versions of windows
this directory is named 'Programme'.
