Re: [PLUG] directory conventions


The symlinks are a good idea. Although, something like /family should be easy enough.

wherever you put it (ie: /usr/share/family_folder_name) - I suggest that
you create a symbolic link that puts it in each family members home or
desktop (ie: /home/sally/family_folder_name). This tends to be easier
than having them navigate to the directory directly.

On a family computer where each family member has an account, I want to create a directory where a family member can save a file so that other family member users can access it. This isn''t a technical question per se; I know how to create a directory and set permissions. Rather, I am trying to find out if there are naming conventions and conventions as to where to locate such a directory.
