Severity: wishlist

It would be nice if there was a way in the config file to specify a directory 
other than /tmp for the default logging. You can specify a directory for 
additional copies of the logs, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm 
talking about the default of /tmp/dircproxy-$user-$pid-$instance. In 
src/irc_log.c starting on line 77,

    tmpdir = getenv("TMPDIR");
    if (!tmpdir)
      tmpdir = getenv("TEMP");
    debug("TMPDIR = '%s'", (tmpdir ? tmpdir : "(null)"));
    debug("Username = '%s'", pw->pw_name);
    debug("PID = '%d'", getpid());
    p->temp_logdir = x_sprintf("%s/%s-%s-%d-%d", (tmpdir ? tmpdir : "/tmp"),
                               PACKAGE, pw->pw_name, getpid(), counter++);

So it checks the enviroment variables "TMPDIR" and "TEMP" and if they are not 
set uses /tmp. So right now you can run "TEMP=~/.dirclogs dircproxy" as a way 
to do this. But it would be nicer to be able to specify a variable in the 
config file instead.

Thanks,
