That is, IIRC, configurable at compile-time, is it not?

Maybe I am completely wrong, but GNUstep's approach to storing user preferences doesn't follow the freedesktop recommendations.
The freedesktop recommendation, suggest using ~/.config for user-specific configuration files (~/.config/GNUstep/Preferences), GNUstep, however, uses its own convention with the ~/GNUstep directory. Regards, Albert

Some of the problems you are raising can be solved (on Linux and BSD) by ensuring that the desktop follows the recommendations of freedesktop.org.
I normally stay completely out of these discussions on the mailing list but this one sentence caught my interest. Are you indicating that there is a recommendation on freedesktop.org that GNUstep should be following but at the moment isn’t? For years I have tried to implement everything from there that seemed useful to us. I admit that I have neglected this task over the last few years. I still follow the freedesktop mailing list, though. And there nothing important came up in that time.It really would help if you could be a bit more specific.Cheers,Fred
