Description
Originally submitted to Google Code by @pekkaklarck on 16 Dec 2010
Variables have source defined in information popup. This source should be a link to the location when applicable.
When the source is a link, the current absolute paths to e.g. resource files can be changed to basenames.

Research direction
Start by locating the information popup implementation in RIDE and trace how variable sources are displayed. Done means applicable sources are rendered as links and linked resource-file paths can use basenames instead of absolute paths; verify the popup behavior with the relevant UI tests if available.
