Migration is very difficult, and this isn't something that's actually a problem True it isn't an issue, but now I know the situation. Thanks. Organized by what criteria? You could create your own hierarchy with links to actual config files, but right now I have no idea why you want them organized. It's like saying you want to organize the /usr/bin or /usr/lib folders. It's just that other applications/desktop environments organize their config files in a folder structure in ~/.config. The categorization simplifies things a bit (eg. ~/.config/plasma/) |
Created attachment 112392 [details] KDE related config files ~/.config path The ~/.config directory is used by Plasma and KDE application for storing config files however these config files are all not organized in a directory(s) and a result the ~/.config path has a lot of KDE related config files. This is a proposal to create a directory structure in ~/.config to better organize those files. An alternative could be to store the config files (or values) in another way.
