Question without interest...

Post by biglittledragoon »

Hello,

there is no interest at all, but I'd like to know WHY the folder in the "Application Support" folder is still named "Adium 2.0"? :wink:

You might think that's stupid to ask for it, but I'm so curious.... :lol:

Thanks,

BLD

Because the devs are too lazy / have a natural hatred of consistency to change it ;)

Actually, we have code in place to handle renaming of the preference folder, but have left it disabled because we do not feel renaming an internal folder important enough to justify the risks and inconveniences involved.

It's what I thought...

So, as I said, it is without interest. Excepted for the "little history" and my curiosity! :D

Thanks for your answers!

Yeah I guessed it might cause problems if it suddenly changed. I like it personally, lots and lots of names: adium x adium 0.77 adium 2.0-it's fun :D

If your guys do change it why don't you just change it to just plain "Adium". That way you don't have to deal with it ever again.
