Variable expansion also seems to be treated differently by TCC/LE than by TCC. In the latter, via options cmd, TCSTART / TCEXIT Path can be set to: %localappdata%\JPSoft\ (which is where the TCMD.ini file is by default). However, TCC/LE will Not expand the variable. Granted, it is possible that Win versions are implicated. TCC/LE 13 is running under Win7SP1, and TCC 15 is running under Win8.1
