Hi to all, I thank you all for your messages and now I better understood the impact of this radical change in how application keep settings. Was a good idea but only if I had made UNIX :-))), now is to late for this change (I'm younger then UNIX :).
I wish you all happy coding, Emanuel Dejanu P.S. Please do not post any more on this topic. I have understood that my recommendation was not good. -----Original Message----- From: Matt Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 26 martie 2002 17:56 To: Emanuel Dejanu Cc: 'Kevin Caunt'; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [lsb-futures] RE: User settings On Tue, Mar 26, 2002 at 05:17:56PM +0200, Emanuel Dejanu wrote: > > As I have said that this should be a must for the new programs. > And in time current programs will follow this road.

In my opinion the LSB exists to identify and standardize on best current practice. There is no industry precedence for using $HOME/.settings, nor is there a move in that direction. The LSB does not exist to strong arm ISVs into doing things in accordance to the whims of any one person. If there is a strong technical reason that this change is absolutely required for things like proper application co-existence, the LSB should entertain the suggestion.
