I know. The symlink is out of the question, but I was thinking more of a configuration option, allowing you to choose, even if it is not ideal, a fat32 partition, or whatever else you'd like.

Rather than move the file (I think the current file location is best, even if it is hard to get to) a good solution would be to add the share feature in the the lyrics box.

Hold down on the lyrics and the options could be :-
Edit Lyrics, Reload Lyrics, Share.

You could then share the text file like you can a song.
I do like the option described, but it does have a major disadvantage, very much like other sharing options on the n900 have that as well: One can only share one file at a time. A hideous task if someone wants a lot of files from you...

Right now, I share lyrics by tarring up a complete subdir from the OMP lyrics directory, mv that to MyDocs and then share it over BlueTooth. From that procedure I came up to my above request. I guess a temp copy from the current directory to a MyDocs location would be better than a move action.
