Changelog:
Bring documentation in sync regarding expansion of environment variables
in the config file.
Can somebody reading/writing German can take a look at
installation-und-konfiguration.german? It's also mentionned in that
file, but I can't change it correctly without speaking German. Thanks.

You can also make use of environment variables like $HOME here,
an example for using a <filename>mywinedrive</filename>
directory in your home dir would be
- <programlisting>"Path" = "${HOME}/mywinedrive"</programlisting>

Don't forget to leave off the trailing slash!
