I wonder if I could ask a silly question. I think a lot of us probably 
have personal conventions as to how we lay out directories etc., for 
example I copy the FPC sources into /usr/local/lib/fpc/x.x.x/fpcsrc.

Do any of the configuration files implement a backtick or similar, so 
that an external script or program in some suitable language can deduce 
parameters based on local conventions?
