I recently discovered there are a couple things about the working directory 
and the runtime directory when running web2py.

   - If you launch "python web2py.py" in Linux from a working directory 
   other than "web2py", the runtime directory is "web2py" and not your working 
   directory. This works fine, but it means we have to keep that in mind when 
   adding other arguments to the command which point to files.
   - If you launch web2py.exe in Windows from a working directory other 
   than "web2py", it doesn't work. It gives the error "RuntimeError: Cannot 
   determine web2py version".

I'm not sure if the 2nd point should be considered a bug in web2py or a 
desired restriction on how it is executed, but in either case, I suggest 
these particular points be mentioned in the book in this section 
<http://www.web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/03/overview#Startup>.

What do you all think?
