Description

@cgcostume

Provide cross-platform means for getting default locations for common uses such as:

  • user profile related data (e.g., C:/Users/<user.name>/AppData/Roaming in windows)
  • local application related data (e.g., C:/Users/<user.name>/AppData/Local in windows)
  • local application with lower integrity level (e.g., C:/Users/<user.name>/AppData/LocalLow in windows)
  • temporary data (e.g., C:/Users/<user.name>/AppData/Local/Temp in windows)
  • user data/documents (e.g., C:/Users/<user.name>/Documents)
    and similarly for Games, Save Games, Music, Pictures, Videos, and Downloads...

Imo this should not (yet) cover/handle querying of locations for specific users, but refer to the current user (the user that started the program) instead.
