Those are "path choices" I was talking about on the first post 
Indeed.
Is really "/@unixroot/var/programs/MyLegacyApplication" a good place for this "legacy OS/2 application" ?
No it is not.
I do experimental stuff using
/var and it kinda came with the copy-paste.
Cool to throw the FHS in the argument

But I have been doing more testing with the
Path Remapper and I think it is the solution
to this legacy-apps issue and generic outside
%UNIXROOT% dir and
file addressing.
I must admit I have always taken that clever piece of software for granted

Using the remapper makes it possible to package legacy applications using their native
directory structure and install them in
%PROGRAMS%, even if the
drive-letter for
%PROGRAMS% differs from the
%UNIXROOT% drive-letter.
My next post will explain using the
Path Remapper in more detail...
