My whole point when starting this discussion was to separate content from settings (the exact opposite of having $HOME as your desktop and storing everything there). $HOME on Unix is used as the default place to store everything, and that's harmful to security - however you choose to organize content, can we please keep the content away from program settings somehow (in a separate folder). -- Ivan Gyurdiev <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cornell University _______________________________________________ Usability mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/usability
