Hi Fred, Maybe I am completely wrong, but GNUstep's approach to storing user preferences doesn't follow the freedesktop recommendations.
The freedesktop recommendation, suggest using ~/.config for user-specific configuration files (~/.config/GNUstep/Preferences), GNUstep, however, uses its own convention with the ~/GNUstep directory.
