I did not know about appdirs.
It does not seem to have separate read vs. save paths.
Required for XDG specification where a path of config folder is defined.
On 1st run the config may be in a system directory which the user cannot write
to.
Saving a config file will go into the users config file.
On the 2nd run that users config should be read not the system config.
appdirs covers the location of more type of files, like cache and data.
