standards: Follow the XDG Base Directory Specification
Everybody likes standards in software, right?
So why not follow the XDG Base Directory Specification?
details: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html
Meaning Xastir should look for (and place) its configuration files by default under a directory in /home/$user/
instead of using its own path. Usually this is .config
, but this path should be derived from variables, as it can differ.
This leads to a less cluttered home directory.
