I suppose Massimiliano is currently sleeping after having worked 
until 7 AM, so I'll jump in, having just downloaded and browsed 
through the source. If you look in the file "config.rb", you'll see that 
there's a fixed list of installation directories. I think I've seen this 
one on the todo list.

Massimiliano, please correct me if I'm wrong when you're back on 
the list.
