Salut,

I mean "/home/user/myNiceProject/allOtherFiles/ThisDoc.txt"
to make "allOtherFiles/ThisDoc.txt"

or "/home/user/mydocuments/allOtherFiles/ThisDoc.txt"
out of "/home/user/myNiceProject" to make
"../mydocuments/allOtherFiles/ThisDoc.txt"

Hope that's clearer now!

Even the "/home/user" replaced by "~" could be.
But in a format, that all other functions which need a file as argument
can handle it.
