Feature request - allow Exiftool GUI to work with exiftool in another directory

[artofit]

Hi,

A few tools uses exiftool (for instance xnviewmp).
To minimize the number of exiftool executable, would you be so kind to add the feature to let the user choose in  which folder exiftool is located.

Thanks

What type of install of exiftool are you referring to (windows .exe, Mac, Perl libraries, etc.)?
Regardless, I think this is a question you should actually redirect to the developers of the applications using exiftool, not exiftool itself.

artofit, in case you didn't notice, ExifToolGUI is currently unsupported. 

That said, there are some options for you to work around this if you like.  For example, you could look into symbolic links and create a link for any program that needs ExifTool in a certain place.  Also, as mentioned in the ExifToolGui docs, you could try putting it in C:\Windows\.  Or you could try adding the path to ExifTool to the PATH env variable and see if that works.
