Subject: Strawberry 5.12.0-RC - idea (relocation.pl)
Hi,

I would like to propose making relocation easier by creating a simple relocation.bat batch file in the root of strawberry installation.

relocation.bat could be as simple as this:
----------
@%~dp0perl\bin\perl.exe %~dp0relocation.pl %*
----------

Or if we do not want to have both relocation.pl + relocation.bat we can create just one relocation.bat in pl2bat style.

P.S. please not my little fix I have done during my testing of relocation.pl

I'm afraid that my batch file skills are not as high as I would like - is %~dp0 the current directory or the directory containing the batch file? If it's the second, I'll add it in, and then fix the readme.txt to compensate. I noticed your little fix - It's a good one, but you also need to change what the documentation says the default for --file should be, because you changed that as well (--file becomes @files).

%~dp0 = the directory containing the batch file

I missed that one necessary doc patch, sorry.

Since this is something that only needs to be done once (hopefully), I won't be making this a batch file. (been thinking over this for a while) Setting to patched because of other changes.

OK, I accept your decision.

I find relocation.bat usefull especially for users downloading ZIP distributions like me (you simply unzip & click on relocation.bat) - considering that these users are mostly slightly advanced thay might be able to run relocation.pl manually without big troubles.

What about to combine relocation.pl and relocation.bat into one file? - see attached kmx_relocation.bat
