Where Do You Save User Prefs?

[Guglielmo Braguglia]

Hi Pete,
the Igor info are correct and here you can verify :

... Table 1-3, paragraph "The Library Directory Stores App-Specific 
Files", on : 
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/FileManagement/Conceptual/FileSystemProgrammingGUide/FileSystemOverview/FileSystemOverview.html

*Application Support* :  Use this directory to store all app data files 
except those associated with the user's documents. For example, you 
might use this directory to store app-created data files, configuration 
files, templates, or other fixed or modifiable resources that are 
managed by the app. An app might use this directory to store a 
modifiable copy of resources contained initially in the app's bundle. A 
game might use this directory to store new levels purchased by the user 
and downloaded from a server.
All content in this directory should be placed in a custom subdirectory 
whose name is that of your app's_bundle identifier_ or your company.
In iOS, the contents of this directory are backed up by iTunes.

Regards,

Guglielmo
