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
