Hm... I haven't worked on PQ93 in a while. I will investigate this after work tonight! 

Hopefully it's a quick fix and I get back to you today. :)

And my apologies for the confusing setup!

Ok, after taking an initial peek, I must confess: I cross-compiled the Windows builds with mingw in Linux, and tested them under wine, also in Linux.

It would seem the behavior of certain things differs under *real* Windows. I actually have a Windows environment these days, so I should be able to fix the problems.

But the wait will likely be until at least this weekend. Apologies!

Current Windows bug list:

• config is busted.
• unable to create temp files
  • boot sequence broken
• 'folder' opens Documents instead of %APPDATA%/paq/pq93

To answer your earlier question: the config *should* be able to be placed in the pq93 directory in appdata *or* in the same directory as the exe. Either should work (next to the exe is portable, which is a desirable feature).

I can confirm that the new config file does indeed work, but only after a user edits the one that you provided. A had an issue that before I edited the one that you provided, "folder" would open "My Documents", but I could not see any files PQ93 or otherwise in that folder using "ls". However, once I changed the config file to point to the "proper" place, it worked as expected. This behavior is likely occurring because the example config file provided contains a directory that does not exist. Perhaps using "c:\" as the default would be better? Or, at least, use something like "c:\ProgramData\pq93" and create that directory in code if it does not exist.

Otherwise, enjoying it so far!
