hmm.. im new to ls and im using the default austerity theme when i click on the "quick launch" icon for windows explorer it opens to the my documents folder (im using win me) i tried using evar config to change this using the " /n, /e, x:\XXX" but that doesnt work...
so how can i change the shortcut for this to work the way i want

Use Variables
"$Drives$"
or
Bangs
!Execute ["$FileManager$" /s,"$Drives$"]
or
!Execute ["$FileManager$" /s,"C:\Litestep"]

By using $FileManager$ it will skin windows if you use windowblinds...

The /s or /e opens with or without folder views on.

Hope that helps...

and dont change it in the themevars [that didnt work for me] change it in the main config file [base.rc] to get it working properly
