i'm assuming the person can get that changed if desired or change it themselves. if not, then it would be a rather strange situation IMO, to not have a home directory and to also not have some other place to put things. that said, i've not looked at an Android, IOS, Mac, or Windows system in a long time and is why i've had to ask here. over the holidays i touched a Mac for the first time in over 30yrs (no i don't get out much :) ) and wished i had more time to look into it more but couldn't. it would have been nice to answer some of my questions by a few minutes of poking around. at the moment i'm assuming that recent Mac's should be posix and have a $HOME and allow for $HOME/.local/share and $HOME/.config songbird -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
