#32867: Where is config file in Xournal -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: eps222@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: reopened Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: Xournal | -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Changes (by eps222@…): * status: closed => reopened * resolution: invalid => Comment: Thank you for your comment. But, if you can please indulge me for a minute, I'm still confused. The issue is not with Xournal. It's simply that, within the MacPorts environment, I'm having trouble finding a folder that Xournal creates. As you wrote back to me, and as the Xournal instructions state, the config file is located in ~user/.xournal/config. But, within the MacPorts environment, no folder is named "user." To be clear, MacPorts installs everything in the ~opt folder. Within that folder, there are two main folders: local and X11. Within local, there are several subfolders - none are called "user". One of the subfolders - the one with the Xournal binary - is called bin. There is no subfolder within bin, or anywhere else I can find, called user. And there are also no subfolders called "user" under within the X11 folder. I'm sure that MacPorts creates the ~user/.xournal/config. somewhere. The help that I'm asking you for is to please point me to where MacPorts places this folder. Thank you again for all of your help, both with this and for your great working porting such a helpful program. Replying to [comment:1 ryandesign@…]:
As far as I can tell, it behaves exactly as the documentation describes: "Xournal's configuration settings are saved to the file ~user/.xournal/config by using the "Save Preferences" command in the Options menu." For further questions about how xournal works, you should ask the developers of xournal, unless you believe there is a MacPorts- specific difference.
