Summary: path configuration for mp3files

Initial Comment:
i think it would be nice if i can set a path for a dir extra 
dir wich includes the mp3audio tracks. so you need the 
mp3 files only one for the same game in diferent 
languages.
e.g. monkey installed in german and english and in a 
different dir the audio files.

The idea is nice, but it doesn't seem to work with Windows.
ScummVM then says:
File track17.mp3 not found
File track17.ogg not found
Track 17 not available in compressed format

Though I have created a link called track17.ogg
A dir in a command line window lists it as track17.ogg.lnk
Is there a way ScummVM could read such files? It would be
nice indeed. I thing this has to be implemented explicitely
since the stupid DOS doesn't it automatically the way Linux
does it.

Besides mp3/ogg from CD tracks, the same usefull thing could
be done with the comi.la0, comi.la1, musdisk1.bun etc. with
CMI since they also are the same between different language
versions.

Why not just use symlinks / aliasa / shortcuts (depending on 
what OS you are on) ?
