It occurred to me that the current coding uses the HOME directory, so we
should be able to just set that to the USB stick in our batch file
before running Denemo.
I tried this out in the Denemo.bat file - it didn't work, and that may
be because in Denemo we get the HOME directory via a gtk call which
perhaps ignores the environment variable and goes to the windows
registry instead.
But, we could potentially copy the .denemo-xxx folder before and after
Denemo runs in the batch file. This would avoid having to try to decide
at run time if the program is being run from a USB stick. (Because the
batch file only lives on the USB stick).
