				Libraries in portable
			 
			
			
			The portable version of calibre always starts with the library that came with it. I copied two libraries to my portable hard disk and calibre can open it, but as i see it, it stores the absolute path. This means it's not in a portable version. And it still always starts with the default. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Is there a way to get calibre to store a relative path and is there a way to change the start up library of calibre portable?  |

			Put the libraries inside the calibre portable folder, in the same place as the normal calibre portable library.

			Wow, that was easy. Just tried it, and it works like a charm. And now that the folders are in the proper place he also remembers the last opened library :-D
