=head1 NAME
File::HomeDir::FreeDesktop - Find your home and other directories on FreeDesktop.org Unix
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module provides implementations for determining common user
directories.  In normal usage this module will always be
used via L<File::HomeDir>.
This module can operate only when the command C<xdg-user-dir> is available
and executable, which is typically achieved by installed a package named
C<xdg-user-dirs> or similar.
One can find the latest spec at L<https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html>.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
  use File::HomeDir;
   
  # Find directories for the current user
  $home     = File::HomeDir->my_home;        # /home/mylogin
  $desktop  = File::HomeDir->my_desktop;
  $docs     = File::HomeDir->my_documents;
  $music    = File::HomeDir->my_music;
  $pics     = File::HomeDir->my_pictures;
  $videos   = File::HomeDir->my_videos;
  $data     = File::HomeDir->my_data;
  $config   = File::HomeDir->my_config;
   
  # Some undocumented ones, expect they don't work - use with caution
  $download    = File::HomeDir->my_download;
  $publicshare = File::HomeDir->my_publicshare;
  $templates   = File::HomeDir->my_templates;
  $cache       = File::HomeDir->my_cache;
