Are you aware that this is against what is already explained in the Harbour
FAQs? I have 60 files or directories directly under $HOME in my computer, and
is quite inelegant. At least now applications try to follow XDG
conventions/specifications and things are somewhat ordered under ~/.config.
Jolla wants to be able to tell how much space an application might be
consuming (and freeing that space upon application removal), so you should
take that into account too.
Please note that the section ("Background") you are quoting is
explaining how map data storage
is handled on Maemo 5/N900. Also it looks like I made a typo, it should
have been:
/home/user/MyDocs/.maps
not
/home/user/.maps
(this might in part have caused the confusion).
My proposal as outlined in the next "Proposal" section is only
targeted on external storage (currently the Jolla device uSD card), in
internal storage applications should of course comply with the XDG
guidelines to avoid chaos.
