Hi all,

I am wondering what is the right place (folder) to store the application 
data

The goal is to use the Environment.GetFolderPath(... facility in order 
to get good crossplatform behavior, however, if I use 
Environment.SpecialDolder.ApplicationData, in my Debian system, the 
folder is .config. I dont know if it is the best place when the most 
linux's applications store their application data files in a folder 
begining with .application_name.

What is the best way to choose the right application data folder?

Greats.

Jose Salvador.
