[Solved] Where is the .texmacs folder on windows 10?

#1

Dear all,

Recently I switched to Windows 10 from Mac/Linux, and I am not very familiar with the convention used in Windows. The problem is that I have some custom settings originally put in ~/.TeXmacs/progs/my-init-texmacs.scm on Mac/Linux, where to put this file on Windows 10?

Best,
JW

BTW, I currently put all my custom settings in C:\Program Files (x86)\TeXmacs\progs\init-texmacs.scm and it works.

But I expect there should be a better place like .texmacs and a file called my-init-texmacs.scm.

Note I create my-init-texmacs.scm with some settings in C:\Program Files (x86)\TeXmacs\progs but it does not work.

You can find out by opening a Scheme session in TeXmacs and entering (get-my-texmacs-home-path)

Oops, it does not work…
