UserConfigDir

Depending on your operating system the UserConfigDir can vary.

  • On Unix systems, it returns $XDG_CONFIG_HOME as specified by XDG if non-empty, else $HOME/.config.
  • On Darwin, it returns $HOME/Library/Application Support.
  • On Windows, it returns %AppData%.
  • On Plan 9, it returns $home/lib.

Contrary to the above Carapace acknowledges $XDG_CONFIG_HOME on every operating system for its config directory.
