Good question. I'll document it better in the docs.
Leo puts several files in the home directory: .leoID.txt,
.leoRecentFiles.txt, and myLeoSettings.leo. There are various fallback
directories if there is no home directory.
If you want more details, you can do what I did: do a clone-find-all for
homeDir.
As for how the home directory is set, the code to do this is
g.computeHomeDir. We get the home directory with
home = os.getenv('HOME',default=None)
There are some mind-numbing details to be handled if there os.getenv does,
in fact, return a directory.
HTH.
