c# - Using .files/.folders with Mono on Linux -
i'm writing c# application on linux, , i'd store applications .config files in user's home directory, i.e. if application's name foo.exe ~user/.foo/foo.exe.config instead of looking .config file in same directory assembly. possible? sure. environment.specialfolder . string appdatadir = environment.getfolderpath(environment.specialfolder.applicationdata); remember use path.combine(folder1, folder2) combine paths in order make app cross platform compatible. alternatively environment variable home : string homedir = system.environment.getenvironmentvariable("home");
