$progdata(5)

NAME

$progdata - Users program data directory

SYNOPSIS

$progdata directory

DESCRIPTION

$progdata contains the pathname of the user's system program data directory for MicroEmacs, this is unlikely to be the same location as $user-path(5).

On Windows the path will be the jasspa sub-directory within the user's application data path, i.e. '%AppData%/jasspa/'. On UNIX systems the path will be '$home/.config/jasspa/' and on other systems it will be '$home/jasspa/'.

Note that the path may not currently exist, particularly if $user-path(5) points to a different location due to one of $MEUSERPATH(5), $MEPATH(5) or $MEINSTALLPATH(5) variables being set.
