The concept looks good. However, I think the support for ~/.config should be handled by emacs itself. I implemented the ~/.xtla config directory. If we feel the need for the ~/.config directory, than it should be easy to add the checks for the environment variable to the function tla--config-file-full-path What do you think? Stefan.
