libetc is an LD_PRELOAD-able shared library designed for maintaining a home directory without dot-files. libetc intercepts file operations, so if a program tries to open a dotfile in $HOME, it is redirected to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME (as defined by freedesktop).

You can then store all your configuration files in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME instead of using lots of dot-files in $HOME.

What's New in This Release:
intercept creat64, mkstemp and mkstemp64.
So libetc now works fine with the Gimp and with fontconfig.
I'm using libetc on my desktops without too much problems.
