3 questions about your coding habits

1. When you're working on stack files, do you always keep them somewhere
in your Home folder, or run with admin privileges and keep them
somewhere else (e.g. Applications)?
2. Do you regularly switch among different OSes, and if so how do you
sync your files (drag-and-drop, rsync, OwnCloud, or something else), or
do you bypass syncing altogether by mounting a shared volume?
3. If you do sync among multiple OSes, do you maintain the same paths to
your stack files on each system relative to your home folder?
e.g.
Mac:
/Users/rg/SomeProject/MyStack.livecode
Linux:
/home/rg/SomeProject/MyStack.livecode
If the latter, then specialFolderPath("home") works as a way of storing
relative paths for multi-OS workflows in a tool I'm working on....
