There is another disadvantage of this methode. Environment variables are
very system dependend and usualy are limited in there length. Personaly I
would prefere a methode in a .ini file in the MLCad form. Having the ini

The reason for using the MLCad.ini until now was to keep MLCad specific
settings there - but since its more public now I open to the location.
