Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: trivial
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General

If the directory ~/.pywikibot2 doesnt exist
/path/to/current/dir/ $ python pwb.py -dir:~/.pywikibot2 version
NOTE: ~/.pywikibot2/user-config.py was not found
Please follow the prompts to create it:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "pwb.py", line 149, in <module>
run_python_file(path, [path], [path.decode('ascii')])
File "pwb.py", line 69, in run_python_file
exec(compile(source, filename, "exec"), main_mod.__dict__)
File "generate_user_files.py", line 19, in <module>
import pywikibot
File "pywikibot/__init__.py", line 29, in <module>
from pywikibot import config2 as config
File "pywikibot/config2.py", line 209, in <module>
_base_dir = get_base_dir()
File "pywikibot/config2.py", line 195, in get_base_dir
raise RuntimeError("Directory '%s' does not exist." % base_dir)
RuntimeError: Directory '/path/to/current/dir/~/.pywikibot2' does not exist.
(that path.decode('ascii') looks defective too)
