This might also be usefull for the generation of the command list, because a few of the command point to C: even though my system drive is D: (some of them still work though because I have Windows XP Home running on C: and Windows XP Professional on D:) Especially for the USB stick edition this would be very useful.
I hope you can introduce this in the
next release. Imagine the possibilities! The USB stick edition could upon insertion (autostart) and index the start menu to index whatever programs can be launched on that computer (no matter what the system drive or user account is).
A few examples of variables:
%WINDIR%, %PROGRAMFILES%, %HOMEDRIVE%, %HOMEPATH%, %mydocuments%, %desktop%, %startmenu%
