Actually FreeDesktop has a standard for this, user "special" directories (including Desktop) are set in : ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs Consequently the format for XDG user-dirs is : # Format is XDG_xxx_DIR="$HOME/yyy", where yyy is a shell-escaped # homedir-relative path, or XDG_xxx_DIR="/yyy", where /yyy is an # absolute path. No other format is supported. Afaik Mono already supports this but there is probably some bug with how the $HOME/yyy format is handled. Just my 2 cents.
