Sorry, I was too quick: at least the method to find the per-game
subdirectories
does not work this way if I run outside my usual project directory. 
I guess we need to specify the game names in a separate file, 
or sort out how these can be found in the jar in another way.

Brett, if you manage to get it done by whatever trick,
that is fine with me. Otherwise I can start helping you out
when I'm back in a week from now.

Eriuk.
