Thanks.  I see that answers a lot of questions about file locations.

> currently using GnuCash on multiple devices?

Yes.  I store the main data file on encrypted cloud storage so I can open my 
books on multiple devices, though not at the same time!  I don't mind if I have 
to duplicate the effort of configuring preferences once in each installation, 
but customized report configs would ideally be available and editable on all 
devices.

Right.  I have used that tool in the past, and I had forgotten about it.  If I 
could redirect configs directly into a Dropbox-replicated directory then that 
would probably be preferable to installing another tool for the syncing.  But, 
I now have more info and can probably get something going that I'm happy with.

Thanks.
