Where so you store preferences? I see that the specialFolderPath() function is Windows & Mac only, so how would I know where to store preferences on a Linux system?
I'm no guru, but in general, one puts preference files in the user's home directory ("~"). Traditionally, configuration files ought to have names that start with a period, such as ".myapplicationrc".
Where should an application be installed? And what if I want the application to be available to a particular user only e.g. on my Mac OS X system, I have /Applications for apps that everyone can use and /Users/sarah/Applications for apps that only I can use. The second is better if I need to write to the application folder as the user has write access to that folder even if not an admin user (at least I think that is correct).
If there's a "bin" (for "binary") directory in the user's home directory, you can put it there. Otherwise I'd put it directly in the homedir, probably.
