Installation directories

Hello Walaber,

why dont you use the environment variable OGRE_HOME inside the OgreNewt project configuration under windows (I don´t know if linux or Mac have the same)?

Instead of (from OgreNewt_Main)

..\..\..\ogrenew\Dependencies\include

you could use

$(OGRE_HOME)\Dependencies\include

So there would be no difference between using it with a prebuild Ogre SDK or a selfbuild CVS Ogre. I think there has been some confusion for newbies in this topic and I can not see any negative points from using $(OGRE_HOME).

It would be nice to have the same for the NewtonSDK (something like $(NEWTON_HOME), which points to c:\newtonsdk (or something like that))

and than using $(NEWTON_HOME)\sdk

instead of

..\..\..\..\NewtonSDK\sdk


It looks like this on my computer now ...

.\inc
..\demos\Include
$(NEWTON_HOME)\sdk
$(OGRE_HOME)\OgreMain\include
$(OGRE_HOME)\Dependencies\include


It would make swapping between different versions (of Ogre and Newton) easier too.

Just an idea ....

Best regards and thanks for your great work so far ...

that is a good idea. when Newton version 1.6 comes out, and I update OgreNewt, I'll try to clean up the directories as well!
