Not only would I want to use ..\file.e I'd probably want to use ..\lib\file.e
In the case of a library distribution it would be very helpful to keep the
folder structure cleaner, but you are right, it would make moving the sub folder
harder (or copying any examples elsewhere harder)
I like Mario Steele's idea better (same as in Perl) you can modify the include
path within the program, so if you have (eg) at the top of each example:
include_folder ..\lib
It would be easy to change (or remove) just that one line.
What do you think?
