I have been doing this for years and it worked nicely for me. So yes, I am in favor of this. If this is being standardized, $XDG_LOCAL_HOME might be a nice name for it. I.e. default values of XDG_LOCAL_HOME="$HOME/.local" XDG_DATA_HOME="$XDG_LOCAL_HOME/share" Richard _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list xdg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
