Environment variable: %TEMP% as debug-dir (doesnt work)

Hi,
First of all, thank you very much for this great and clean tool(set).

Why won't UE accept "%TEMP%" as directory for the debug file? Does it want a drive? Would be great, if this could be fixed (I just edited the ini manually - hope it'll work)

When using UE as stickware (portable) this of course is the only right option

thx,
dnbm

Support for environmental variable just doesn't exist at this time. I'd like to add it - this has come up before. You can actually specify %TEMP% (or whatever else) in the installer and it'll work properly, but this gets converted to an absolute path when saved in the UniExtract preferences file, so it doesn't help too much for portable versions.

I'll try to get this included in the next major version.

Well, I lied. I got ambitious and decided to add it to 1.6.1. :-) Seems to work ok, but it hasn't been exhaustively tested; will probably need to release a beta to make sure there are no side effects.
