Log:
This is a small C program that implements the features we wish Windows had for relative linking. It allows a the TBB to have program in the root of a usbdisk. It has a custom icon to ease user confusion and it appears to work as fast as the batch file without any new hiccups being introduced.

+// RelativeLink.c
+// by Jacob Appelbaum <jacob at appelbaum.net>
+//
+// This is a very small program to work around the lack of relative links 
+// in any of the most recent builds of Windows.
+//
+// To build this, you need Cygwin or MSYS.
+//
+// You need to build the icon resource first:
+// windres ShortCut-res.rc ShortCut-res.o
+//
+// Then you'll compile the program and include the icon object file:
+// gcc -o StartTorBrowserBundle ShortCut.c ShortCut-res.o
+//
+// End users will be able to use StartTorBrowserBundle.exe
+//
