To expand some on what Nicholas said, I was running some tosser for a while
that was determined not to use the typical "/out.(hex)" directories that
worked well with binkd. My fix, as I am running on linux, was to create
symlinks to the standard path using the paths the tosser wanted as the
symlink names.
So the tosser could write to whatever non-standard paths it
wanted to, while the binkd config was pointed to the standard named
"out.(hex)" paths.
Thought I would throw that in there as a potential option if his suggestion
didn't quite work.
