          Summary: File, Open to show Examples folder by default

The first time the user does an open, the folder shown should be ../share/xaralx/Examples. This is relative to the location of the currently running executable. Luke will advise on how to get hold of this location in LX.
So can I just bind in "../share/xaralx/Examples" into the exe then or is there more to it than that? Should I use a function to find the CWD and append to that?

We use binreloc to find this information out. You can use the code @ oilfltrs.cpp:352 as an exmaple of how this can be used. For full documentation please see http://autopackage.org/docs/binreloc/#basic.
