Hi, I wish I could change the location of the ./fgfs directory to another location on a different disk, how do you do this?

Grazie

a) Environment variable: "$FG_HOME=/something/something/"
b) Command line option: ... dang, I need to recompile fgfs, cannot have a look there. probably "--prop:/sim/fghome=/something/something/" or similar (Not entirely certain this still works!). Command line options may be held in ~/.fgfsrc
