General Chat / [request] Change Linux Assist data-dir to be compilant with a XDG standard
« on: Monday, January 14, 2013, 10:33:33 AM »
Hi,
I've got important request and I'd be grateful if you consider and apply it.
25Assit data directory is set as /home/USERNAME/25Assist/, which isn't good for some reasons. Most important of it is that it isn't hidden and it is placed directly in user homedir.
What I propose it is to set it as defined in: XDG Base Directory Specification.
In other words it should be set to $XDG_DATA_HOME/25Assist or if $XDG_DATA_HOME is not defined it should be: $HOME/.local/share/25Assist.
Yours sincerely
