title: Store minecraft data in current directory
body: <p><strong>EDIT: used different decompiler now includes the Util$OS.class file</strong></p>
  
  <p>I am trying to modify the mine craft launcher to check for a <code>minecraft</code> folder in the current working directory and if none exists then use the established routines to Crete and download the needed files. This is my first foray into java programing so I am feeling a bit lost. Here is the source of the offending class file: (the block that i think needs modifying starts on line 15)</p>

  <p>I have done some research on getting the current working directory but i am not sure what needs modifing. If someone could at least explain what the various parts of the file mean that would be very helpful.</p>
