IntelliJ configuration directory

Hi all,

Is there a way to configure the directory where all the configuration files are stored by IntelliJ IDEA (version 8.0.1)?

By default, these files are stored in %home%\.IntelliJIdea80..., but I want to define another location...

Thanks.

You can change this in you %idea installation directory%\bin\idea.properties. Edit this in-place or copy the whole file to your %home% directory to keep the setting across different versions of idea.
