   @mdhughes something I've done a bit which might be bad is use the asdf system directory from (asdf:system-source-directory :my-system) to also keep ephemeral data in (git ignored). I should probably figure that xdg stuff out one day.

     The two i find really useful are:
     
     (asdf:system-relative-pathname "dead-air" "_data/config.lisp")
     
     Which will put it relative to the dead-air.asd file in your project.
     
     OR to put it in your home directory:
     
     (format nil "~a/.record_del.db" (uiop:getenv "HOME"))
     
     Either of these should work on any OS type.
