NAME

       File::HomeDir::FreeDesktop - Find your home and other directories on FreeDesktop.org Unix

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides implementations for determining common user directories.  In normal
       usage this module will always be used via File::HomeDir.

       This module can operate only when the command "xdg-user-dir" is available and executable,
       which is typically achieved by installed a package named "xdg-user-dirs" or similar.

       One can find the latest spec at
       <https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html>.

         use File::HomeDir;

         # Find directories for the current user

         $desktop  = File::HomeDir->my_desktop;
