RESOURCES DIRECTORY

Skype keeps its resources in a resources directory. The resources
directory must contain the following subdirectories:
* "sound". This contains the following files:
 - call_in.wav - "incoming call" ringtone
 - call_out.wav - "ringing" tone for caller
 - im.wav - incoming Instant Message alert sound
 You can modify or change these files to your liking.
* "lang" - contains *.qm files for Skype UI translation

Skype searches the following locations for a resource directory
and stops at first match:

1) command line option "resources-path":
   ./skype --resources-path /some/directory/with/resources
2) environment variable SKYPE_RESOURCES_PATH
3) hardcoded paths of current directory, /usr/share/skype and
   /usr/local/share/skype
