Yes, that makes sense, and that's what gretl uses for per-user 
settings.  

The question, though, is what we should use as the default 
location for user files (e.g. saved data files, scripts, sessions 
and so on)?  I'm now inclined to think under "My Documents" may be 
better than the current default, but I don't have time to test 
that change so I'm not going to make it just now.  

Allin.
