No, I just keep source code I'm working with in a subdirectory off
projects. There really isn't any default location for it on Windows
because I don't provide an installer, just the executable (or source)
in a zip file. I suppose the canonical location on windows would
be "C:\Program Files\ldglite\ldglite.exe", but I'd have to recommend
against that because I really dislike the way spaces in the directory
name make it difficult to run the program from a command prompt.
Perhaps it's best to go with "C:\ldglite\ldglite.exe" unless someone
else has a better suggestion.
Actually, you might want to default to an entirely different viewer
program for Windows...
