The XDG Base Directory Specification
<http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/> seems like the best
idea anyone’s come up with so far to end the dotfile clutter in everyone’s
home directories.
But it needs application software to support it.
I’ve put together a very simple library for Python
<http://github.com/ldo/xdg_base_dir>, though I know it needs a bit more
refinement. I’ve included a sample testbed application to exercise it.
Comments welcome.
