[Bf-committers] Preference file changes for Vista/Win7, network installations, and large domain deployments

[Rob M]

Hi,

I've developed a patch for the UNC path problem which allow Blender to run
from a UNC path.

See
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=21836&group_id
=9&atid=498 for details.

Where would I look to add support for UNC paths in the open and save
dialogs?

Regards,

Rob.
