I implemented something similar in commit
45aba232abe50b6642abfaa06030985c7febbe07.
There still are problems, though. The program expects a directory
“Songs” to exist in the current working directory. It then fails with
this error:
Error: No NoteSkins found
This seems to work fine only when when “stepmania” is executed from
within the “share/stepmania” directory. I suspect that this is the same
kind of problem.
