Making changes to a program from the dUFLP is problematic. You may want to copy out just the code you want, and put it in your own library of files, so that if someone changes something you don't destroy any work you're using it for. I do think hardcoding paths is usually a bad idea unless it can't be avoided. You've been given ways to handle it ...
