Hi Raven, when running on Wine Moi will use a directory .moi inside your user dir for appdata.

for example moi.ini will go in ~/.moi/moi.ini and you'll have ~/.moi/commands for appdata commands, etc...

Also you should be able to see where the moi.ini file is located by using Options > General > "Edit .ini file" button. That will bring up a dialog that shows the path to the moi.ini that is currently being used.

STOP PRESS

Ok I've figured out that Linux Mint uses a slightly different folder hierarchy for its .exe installed apps (using Wine)
Instead of AppData/Roaming/Moi it uses Home/username/.moi

Everything up & running just fine and dandy and all is well in the world. Sometimes it's nice to have a brain that works ok :)

It's actually not Linux Mint doing that - it's part of MoI's wine integration that it uses a dotfile in your user dir and shows native linux paths for the recent files list.

Good to know - will it do the same on any Linux distro?
I've converted my old laptop to Linux as a sort of Canary to see if I can set up my usual workflows on it without too much messing around - if I can do that then I'll run Linux on my better machines as well.

Yup, should be same behavior on any distro.
