xdg-user-dirs is a tool to help manage "well known" user directories like
|
||
|
|
the desktop folder and the music folder. It also handles localization
|
||
|
|
(i.e. translation) of the filenames.
|
||
|
|
The way it works is that xdg-user-dirs-update is run very early in the
|
||
|
|
login phase. This program reads a configuration file, and a set of
|
||
|
|
default directories. It then creates localized versions of these
|
||
|
|
directories in the users home directory and sets up a config file
|
||
|
|
in $(XDG_CONFIG_HOME)/user-dirs.dirs (XDG_CONFIG_HOME defaults to ~/.config)
|
||
|
|
that applications can read to find these directories.
