gnu-emacs@gentoo.org Gentoo GNU Emacs project Some packages put files directly in user-emacs-directory or $HOME or in a subdirectory of either of the two or elsewhere. Furthermore sometimes file names are used that don’t provide any insight into what package might have created them. This package sets out to fix this by changing the values of path variables to put configuration files in no-littering-etc-directory (defaulting to “etc/” under user-emacs-directory, thus usually “$HOME/.config/emacs/etc/”) and persistent data files in no-littering-var-directory (defaulting to “var/” under user-emacs-directory, thus usually “$HOME/.config/emacs/var/”), and by using descriptive file names and subdirectories when appropriate. https://github.com/emacscollective/no-littering/ emacscollective/no-littering
