[Rails-devel] default load and save directory

[James R. <rom...@gm...>]

Hi,

I'm using Rails and Dropbox for a game of 18EU and enjoying it very much so
far.  We're storing the saves in a subdirectory of the directory that
contains the rails-1.0.7-rc2.jar file.  The default load and save directory
is the directory that contains the .jar file.

I see the file my.properties has a commented-out line that can be used to
set the save.directory variable, and another comment nearby says that the
path can be absolute or relative.  I've tried a few guesses at how to set
that variable to the subdirectory with our saves, which is /18EU-B below the
.jar directory.  I wasn't successful in getting it to work, so I thought I'd
ask the experts how it is done.

I'd be grateful if you would tell me the exact syntax I'd need to set the
directory down one level from the .jar directory, to /18EU-B
