Putting the data and the config file in '.' is fine to me. We'll have to
put batch files for playing games, as well as the right 'Start' menu
entries.

Maybe, although it might be confused with Windows .ini files, which can
somehow be executed if I remember correctly. adonthellrc is not that
bad, and we'll specify well where the configuration file is (would be
worth to put the README in the start menu too, as most programs do).
