I'm using pygame to write a game called Bombz which needs to save some data in a directory associated with it. In Unix/Linux I'd probably use "~/.bombz", in Windows something like "C:\Documents And Settings\<user>\Applicacation Data\Bombz".
There are plenty of messages in the archives for this group about how to find the correct location in Windows, but what about Mac OS? There I don't know the correct location for this sort of thing at all. And there are other, more obscure systems like RISC OS (it may not have pygame but it definitely has python). Surely this is something that's crying out for an official function in os or sys. -- The address in the Reply-To is genuine and should not be edited.
