Hi Mark,
On both Mac and Linux you should use ~/applications. There preferences
folder is for preferences files, not for standalone applications.
One possible location for a preferences file on Linux is the home
directory. Make sure to start the name of the file with a period, to
hide it under normal circumstances. The global variable $HOME returns
the path to the home directory.

Hi Mark S.
I can't try it because I don't have a Linux box available now.
But will be putting the application out to beta sometime soon - next
year
:).
So if I do the following:
put specialFolderPath("Preferences") into tPath --for MacOS
put specialFolderPath(26) into tPath --for Windows
put ~/applications into tPath --for Linux
This should return me the path to the users applications folder?
And after that if I append the software company name & application
name,
this should be OK for storing application information, such
application
settings?
Regards,
Mark Stuart
