I have 0 hours of C++ experience so this is probably bad. I also didn't add legacy support to fallback to ~/.mpdscribble/ but that may be desirable. Would fix #15 and match MPD's behavior.

This breaks existing configurations.

I believe it should now check and use the legacy paths first if they exist.

MaxKellermann commented 3 years ago

The new patch still breaks existing configurations. If an environment variable XDG_CONFIG_HOME exists, the old paths will never be loaded. Also, please avoid the std::string bloat.
