Hello. I have a problem, I don't know how to fight with. :) I want my application to save big amount of data in ~/.appname dir. What is the best way to achieve this? How to find user related dirrectory? Also program may already have some data files in /usr/share/appname dirrectory, so I need to check the existance of file there and if I do not have file there create a new one in ~/.appname. And at least may be even more. To add users possibility to look for files in dirrectories that may be mentioned in some environment variable (APPNAMEDIR="path1:path2"). Is there any technology in gtk+/gnome programming for thing like this? May be I should save paths with gconf? Or may be there already exist some parser to environment variables? Sorry if this is very simple and not realated to gtk+ question. I'm creating gui with gtk, so I don't know better list to ask questions... May be you could point me there? Thank you in advance for any help, Peter. _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
