I figured it out: mc is LYING about where it is saving stuff. The save actually goes to ~/.local/share/mc
But when I save config in mcedit, it says it's saving it in ~/.config/mc, which it most certainly is not, nor is it loading it from there. likewise it's not saving anything in ~/.cedit. macports had installed as root (sigh) and the various files needed to have their permissions modified. I would have caught this if the program hadn't been lying to me about where it was saving things. This is mc version 4.8.18 --Ben fyngyrz On Tue, Jan 31, 2017 at 11:17 AM, Anony Mous <fyng...@gmail.com> wrote: > the .mc and .cedit directories exist; I am the owner of them; the > permissions a rwxrwxrwx on the directories. > > mc says it's saving to ~/.mc > > But it doesn't.
