DESCRIPTION
The /etc/xdg/user-dirs.conf file is a text file that controls the behavior of the xdg-user-dirs-update command. Users can have their own ~/.config/user-dirs.conf file, which overrides the system-wide configuration.
The following keys are recognised:
enabled=boolean
When set to False, xdg-user-dirs-update will not change
the XDG user dirs configuration.
filename_encoding=encoding
This sets the filename encoding to use. encoding
can be an explicit encoding name, such as UTF-8, or "locale", which
means the encoding of the users locale will be used.
Lines beginning with a # character are ignored.
