>IIRC you can have more than one config.fpw, one in the project and one in the same folder as the exe. Or you can specify the second one by the -C parameter which also works for the vfp applications you create yourself. The "built in" will be read first, and the second will take precedence if any values exist in both.

Yup, having different launchers is actually the easier way to do it. It's just that I'm lazy the other way - finding the icon in the menu or on the desktop was too slow :). So I usually had some kind of command line or similar utility to launch Fox, or just one icon on the taskbar, and then used environment manager - which meant I always used one config.fpw for all of them. Suited me - but then I didn't have any problem having a local config.fpw in a project, knowing that it would be used only inside the exe. The one used in the IDE was at home().

Now that I can't use environment manager (anything running a browser object won't work under linux/wine), I launch fox via bash scripts and do use the -C parameter.
