RE: Default location of Beagle index

["Gregoire Gentil" <gregoire gentil com>]

Richard,

Thanks for the answer.

I have a very specific architecture and I can do neither mount or
symlink (very complex - I will not enter the details here). This is why
I was wondering if there is a setting somewhere in Beagle to specify the
location of the index file. It's pretty the same situation as Firefox -
where you can specify the cache folder - and I don't think that it's a
stupid question taking into account the size of index files. You may
want to put index files somewhere else and not in your ~ folder.

If somebody else has a clue, thanks to let me know. Otherwise, I can
still patch Beagle but that's ugly,

Gregoire
