Yes that is a work-around, but then I could not just run theroin in the
directory and have it automatically pick up the config file - I would have
to give an option.

The real reason for pointing it out is that Therion does not give a useful
error when you do this. It should say something like "Current dir <foo>
cannot open <path>' ", so that you could work out that you opened the wrong
file.
