[Surfraw-devel] per-user elvi and xdg config dirs

[Ian Beckwith]

Hi,

I'm still horribly busy, things will hopefully calm down soon, but I
found time to apply James' per-user elvi patch and implement the XDG
basedir spec.

I wasn't 100% sure about whether to implement the XDG stuff,
but as I wanted to move the per-user config into a subdir anyway,
it seemed best to do it now rather than potentially have an
extra change in the future.

See the ChangeLog, README and
http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html
for more info, but briefly, if no $XDG_CONFIG_* environment variables
are set, global config is now in @sysconfdir@/xdg/surfraw/ (where
@sysconfdir@ is usually /etc/ or /usr/local/etc) and local config is in
~/.config/surfraw/, so with a typical config:

Global config files:

/etc/xdg/surfraw/conf
/etc/xdg/surfraw/bookmarks

Local config files:

~/.config/surfraw/conf
~/.config/surfraw/bookmarks

and local elvi in:

~/.config/surfraw/elvi/*

Ian.
