Subject: OS independent way to specify location of .emacs.d directory
Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2013 17:01:19 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130403170119.2bef743a@gauss> (raw)
Is there way that specifies the path to the .emacs.d
directory that works on Linux, Windows, and Mac?
Currently I use
(format "%s/.emacs.d" (getenv "HOME"))
However, I doubt that is necessarily correct on Windows.
