Please help me with using love.filesystem?

Sweet it has been working the whole time!

I just totally misunderstood the documentation. I was expecting the file to be within the love folder that main.lua was in, not a different love folder.

thanks all.

So does 0.6.0+ now store files in the Library instead of a hidden folder under our Home folder? Thank GOD! Opening that hidden folder all the time was a pain in the ass. I hate when apps put stuff in the Home folder under a hidden folder.

It's the Unix way.

But of course, OS X != Unix, although IIRC it was built on top of it. The native way is preferable above the Unix way.

It may be the Unix way, but it doesn't mean OS X apps derived from Unix roots need to keep doing that crap. It's a simple line in the code. Change it from userhome/ to userhome/Library/Application Support/App Name/

That's exactly what I did.

*cough*

I was talking to the other developers out there porting Unix apps to OS X and leaving it the other way. Not you guys.
