ihsuy / typon Goto Github PK

Currently, Typon only contains English typing practice.
Add more languages like German, French, Spanish etc.

The data directory location should be easily user-configurable and changeable, e.g. via CLI flag, and/or a config file such as ~/.config/typon.conf. But it doesn't seem to be.

I always compile applications in /tmp, so that cruft doesn't build up. Which gets deleted after every reboot. After realizing the data directory got created under that temporary git project directory for some weird reason, I copied the following data to ~/.local/share/typon/ before my next reboot:

• quotes/
• gsave.txt
• psave.txt
• stats.txt

But I can't get /usr/local/bin/typon to use this location. And the application fails after /tmp is cleared.

I've tried running typon while in that new data directory as the current directory; that doesn't work.

I've also tried running typon -path ~/.local/share/typon just in the unlikely case that's a thing typon understands; it doesn't seem to. (typon -path still returns the now non-existent path it insist on trying to use.)

I can't find a user or system-wide typon config file that defines that path anywhere. Not anywhere under my user folder (named anything with "typon" or "ihsuy" in it), not anywhere under /etc, /usr, /var.

I've searched the source code to see if I can figure out how it's handling the path for those things (I'm sure that's figure-out-able, but I can't seem to.) I've found variables for storing them in save_handler[c|h]pp but not how they are set. It seems like I'm missing how/when/where the variable my_addr gets set.
