Description (last modified by axeld)

Could we prettify ~/config/settings? Currently there is no standard settings names for apps/prefs some of them capitalized/underlined or have settings postfix. Maybe would be better to have a standart naming, such as for ex: "$app_name$_settings" or just "$app_name$" in the lower case or 1st letter in upper case like "$App_name$". screenshot of current name hell will follow.

I would like that, too, but we'd need to "break" compatibility for that, ie. when upgrading to Haiku, you'd lose all your settings. Of course, we could make all apps be able to read old settings, but write their settings to a different place afterwards - but that's not very nice, and probably also just not worth the effort.
