I'd prefer just ~/.aMule/conf
Naming the file amule.conf is redundant. But maybe I'm just lazy...

The 1th or the 2nd make more sense than any other, but that's just me ;)

Agree with ~/.aMule/amule.conf - it's pretty standard choice

As have other files inside ~/.aMule, the ~/.aMule/amule.conf is more compatible with FHS ( http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html )

Yep. I really like the ~/.aMule/amule.conf name. It just sounds (and looks) so natural, and obvious. Also, keeping preferences.dat is a good idea. For example, I would have never started using amule if there was no way to keep using my hard-earned emule credits. But fortunately, tere is, so keep this.

Regards.

P.S: I've noticed some (all?) of the error pop-ups, say emule application (or smth like that) instead of amule. If possible, would like to see that corrected also. It's no funny for me to remember every time that amule is based on emule.

You must remember it, because it's because of eMule that oyu ahve aMule ;)


anyway, we'll get rid of that at the same time we move config file, and guess what? because of the same reason.

yeah, I kind of expressed myself wrong. I'm not disrespectful (in fact, I use both, amuel and emule) but it's annoying seeing a file named .emule, and the errors saying emule error. It just doesn't look good naming your app amule, but having details like those.

Regards.
