#178 dsps try to write to illegal directory

7-zip 3.09.02

Some of the dsp files in 7-zip hardcode the output to

C:\Program Files\7-zip\...

and C:\Program Files is a directory that is not writable to
normal users, so it is a particularly inconvenient
output --
I can't simply create that directory (it isn't writable) --
I have to change the output in every such dsp.

Would you consider using relative paths instead, so as to
write to somewhere nearby and allowable to the normal
user ?

I could submit a patch ?

C:\Program Files\7-zip\... is good for me.
It allows me to test exe/dll just after compiling.

Ok, I was afraid you might not want to change it.

Do you want to mark the bug rejected and close it ?

I'll live with it :)

I'll just have to administratively create those directories,
because I don't want to maintain separate dsps, and then
copy the files back after they get created there -- a batch
file will probably be good for that. I'm trying to test some
code written against 3.09.02 sources at the moment, but
hope to update it later, after I understand the changes
in the archivecallback interface from 3.09.02 to 3.10.
