Summary

0001407: Use a default directory which is not hidden

Description

When a user first installs aMule, the downloaded files go to ~/.aMule/Incoming. This is confusing for first time Linux users since it is not trivial for them to locate files under a hidden directory.

Could you please use a visible directory under $HOME by default? aMSN for example creates a ~/amsn_incoming (which is quite ugly, but at least you know where it comes from :-)

Notes
(0002956) Wuischke (manager) 2008-09-21 15:31	We're considering changing this in the next major version. (2.3.0)

(0003559) morph (reporter) 2011-04-25 18:27	2.3.1 has already have its first rc version, but this doesn't seem to be addressed: do we still have a chance to see it going into the final 2.3.1? That would be really nice. Thanks

(0003560) sturedman (developer) 2011-04-27 15:27	Don't think so.
