[bt-devel] Modules...

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Hey guys,
	Yes, the FIRST place sword looks for its modules is your CWD.  This was 
probably your HOME directory, so this is why you saw the behaviour that 
you did.  The reasoning is that you might have a set of modules that you 
are testing or are using for a specific program task, so you can place 
them in some directory, cd to that directory, and run a sword app which 
will work against just those modules.

	Hope this explains the rationale,
		-Troy.
