Are there any plans for XDG Base Directory specification instead of automatically putting files into ~/.MakeMKV, which clutters the user's home directory? Many programs are in the midst of a shift right now, and I encourage MakeMKV devs to do the same.

Thanks!

Re: XDG
"dumping files"? You have control over what files are dumped there. Mine has 8 files, the most recent is _private_data_tar, with just 4 being created from running the program in general (when I was doing some data collection).

Re: XDG
I can tell the term usage may have triggered the wrong response here.
Could you confirm that you've managed to move the ~/.MakeMKV folder to another location, such as ~/.config?
I'm looking to have nothing in the home, sorry for the misusage of the terms above!
