From dde89c36f53558c64c5fce2c87850028b89ca45d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Schickel Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2016 19:56:20 +0100 Subject: POSIX: Move default config file location to '$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/scummvm/scummvm.ini'. This is what the XDG Base Directory Specification suggests to use. We still use the old location of '~/.scummvmrc' in case that is present. This tackles an aspect of bug #6036 "POSIX: Use XDG dirs instead of HOME". --- README | 10 +++++++++- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'README') diff --git a/README b/README index a651603774..d791ac40e5 100644 --- a/README +++ b/README @@ -2329,7 +2329,15 @@ By default, the configuration file is saved in, and loaded from: previous default location of '\scummvm.ini' will be kept.
