I agree that using the home directory is the best way. I've been doing it
this way, and it works very well.
It's also quite easy to append the ~/gdc/bin path inside the bash startup
script for the console (typically '.bashrc' or '.bash_profile'). That way,
it becomes really simple to run the gdc executable from the commandline.
Add 'rebuild' to the mix and compiling projects with gdc becomes a snap. :)
