[sword-devel] Module locations

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Will,
	If you want to add a path at runtime, after your SWMgr has been 
created, you might get away with just calling SWMgr::augmentPath(const 
char *path)

I'm not sure this is a very good idea.  You'd probably want to reload 
the module list completely, as the user might have removed a path also. 
  I'd recommend:

delete mgr;
mgr = new SWMgr();

after the prefs are changed.

... but I'm not sure exactly the context of the question, so I'm sure 
you'll be a better judge than me.

	-Troy.
