Background: I'm using orgmode on different platforms, Windows and Linux. So I 
(being very proud of that!) wrote an if-clause:

(setq org-link-abbrev-alist
   (if (eq system-type 'windows-nt)
      '(("foopath" . "//Sbs2011/ra2000/Bilder/2010/271-2011/%s")
)
      '(("foopath" . "/home/AW/some/path/2011-271-project/%s")))



So on Windows foopath becomes the first path, and on Linux the second and all 
my links in the orgmode files work on both platforms.

A cheap solution for EXPORT_FILE_NAME: just have two lines and comment out the 
wrong one!

-----------------
* Subtree to be exported
:PROPERTIES:
# :EXPORT_FILE_NAME: //Sbs2011/ra2000/Bilder/2010/271-2011/filename
:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: /home/AW/some/path/2011-271-project/filename
:EXPORT_TITLE:
:END:

foo

-----------------

But comment seems not to work inside properties.

However, :EXPORT_FILE_DIRECTORY: would only improve _my_ situation, if I could 
make it dependend on a condition. 

Thank you very for your help!

Kind regards,
