Hello, while I'm preparing a new revision of my musical program Csgrouper -- which goes pretty well now -- I'm wondering how I could simplify all the startup steps.

As Csgrouper requires an application directory, with several subdirectories and files, I first set up a complicated way of launching the application; in front of this complication (Csgrouper could be started from within its directory or not, with or without an initial project file, etc.) I decided finally not to manage different scenarios and to require Csgrouper to be started from witin its directory. But I'm not satisfied with that either.

Could anyone please redirect me to some judicious or even standard ways of handling these startup questions?

Thanks in advance.
