I haven't paid enough attention, but is the planned approach equally applicable to windows? I see (remember) so many differences in the directory structure and configuration approach (between Windows and Linux--the Windows registry for example), that it would be hard to believe. (On the other hand, there is usually a high enough perspective from which similarities in almost anything can be perceived.) But, my request was only that: * consider the new Linux standards that are being developed (the $XDG stuff) and implemented so far in only a few cases (and rather confusing at that, at least to me, because the implementations I've seen don't match my interpretation of the specifications, nor do they all match) * keep it (easily) configurable, so renegades like me can adjust it to suit (I guess it will be in any case, I mean, I guess I can use symlinks to get stuff out of my ~/ --I'm sure I've tried that at one time or another, and I know I ran into some problems, but those may have been partially due to my inexperience at the time (and I can't immediately remember what they are)) I don't intend to beat a dead horse, the planned direction seems appropriate, and I'm going to cap my pen. ;-) Randy Kramer -- "I didn't have time to write a short letter, so I created a video instead."--with apologies to Cicero, et.al. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
