Just noticed this, dunno if you worked it out yet? You don'd say what
RISC OS you are running or indeed which RPCEmu .

Using RISCOS 3.7 here and 0.9.4.  To achieve what it sounds like you are
after, you could create a symbolic link inside your HostFS directory,
pointing to your home directory. Then use 'AddTinyDir'.

From the command line, something like;

AddTinyDir HostFS::HostFS.$.Home

where home is the symbolic link you created. Create an obey file and
have it run on each boot to make it persistant.

I think pinboard in RISC OS 5 can do that.
