  Description       : tool to manage well known user directories (Gtk
frontend)

Hi,
I plan to package xdg-user-dirs-gtk, a tool to manage well known user
directories.

> xdg-user-dirs is a tool to help manage "well known" user directories
> like the desktop folder and the music folder. It also handles
> localization (i.e. translation) of the filenames. 
> 
> The way it works is that xdg-user-dirs-update is run very early in the
> login phase. This program reads a configuration file, and a set of
> default directories. It then creates localized versions of these
> directories in the users home directory and sets up a config file in
> $(XDG_CONFIG_HOME)/user-dirs.dirs (XDG_CONFIG_HOME defaults to
> ~/.config) that applications can read to find these directories. 

Bye
