You can change the environmental variable CRAFTY_BOOK_PATH={location} for each
different path you want to use. So, for instance, you might have a batch file
that does this:
@Echo "Setting up crafty to play ECO A00"
REM Set crafty book location:
SET CRAFTY_BOOK_PATH=e:/crafty/release/A00
REM Go to the crafty base directory:
CD e:/crafty/release
REM Start the program:
