--------------------------------------

> <targetPath> is always relative to target/classes, even if you pass it an absolute path. This happens if the path is from a variable, like this:
>   <targetPath>${basedir}/scripts</targetPath>
> It also happens if you write the path directly:
>   <targetPath>/home/pjungwir/src/encc/scripts</targetPath>
> or on windows:
>   <targetPath>C:/home/pjungwir/src/encc/scripts</targetPath>
> Your resources wind up in directories like this:
>   /home/pjungwir/src/encc/target/classes/home/pjungwir/src/encc/scripts
