Configuration files directory differs from Vanilla Doom

[Henrique194]

Background

Version of Chocolate Doom: 3.0.1

Operating System and version: Windows CE or any OS different than Windows

Game: (Doom/Heretic/Hexen/Strife/other): All

Any loaded WADs and mods (please include full command line): No WADs or mods

Bug description

Observed behavior:
Under Windows CE or any OS different than Windows, configuration files are saved in a directory specified by SDL, instead of saving them in the same directory as the executables.

Expected behavior:
Behave as Vanilla Doom for any OS, saving configuration files in the same directory as the executables.

Expected behavior: Behave as Vanilla Doom for any OS, saving configuration files in the same directory as the executables.

That'd be /usr/bin in Linux or any other unixoid OS and that directory is generally not writable for everyone, for good reasons.

@fabiangreffrath Good point. Maybe we can allow Windows CE to behave as Vanilla then? It would only require us to remove the defined(_WIN32_WCE) from this line.

[fabiangreffrath]

Is this really about Windows CE or is it about the principle?

[Henrique194]

It is more about simplifying the code and bringing Window CE behavior closer to the original Doom.
