Thanks for responding. My main issue is to access the file in a relative path of ~/ Every user has a different path to get to their home folder /home/<uniqueUserName>/.config/ I want it to access the XML file from a relative ~/.config/ so far it seems I can only hard code the location.. Permissions aren't my main concern right now, as I am making this application mainly for the desktop at this point, and not necessarily as a click app, yet, though this could have other uses once I get it pieced together.
