#6464: FAQ clarification
---------------------------------------------+------------------------------
Reporter: tamu2008 | Type: defect
Status: new | Priority: minor
Component: pidgin (gtk) | Version: 2.4.3
Keywords: gtkrc location HOME Environment | Pending: 0
---------------------------------------------+------------------------------
The FAQ entry "What is a gtkrc file and where can I find it?" should
mention that, even in Windows environments, the %HOME% variable, if set,
supersedes the others that are mentioned. I discovered this after 30
minutes of trial and error.
I use Cygwin and have therefore put $HOME in the Windows environment and
that variable is used for gtkrc placement. I expect I'm not alone.
Also, there may be other implications of having HOME set, though I've not
yet come across them.
