we use SDL_GetPrefPath() in Chocolate Doom to get a reasonable directory to save and restore config files and savegames:
https://github.com/chocolate-doom/chocolate-doom/blob/sdl2-branch/src/m_config.c#L2162
However, since there is no "organization" behind Chocolate Doom and there is really only one "product" called Chocolate Doom, we pass an empty string for the org parameter and the package string for app.
This leads to two consecutive slashes in the path returned by SDL_GetPrefPath() like this:
/home/user/.local/share//chocolate-doom/
While this is harmless, it sure looks bad.
I believe that it should be possible to either pass a NULL pointer for the org parameter or at least have the function detect an empty string as a means to express "there is no origanization, just a single product". The generation of the path string to be returned by the function will have to get adapted accordingly.
These are test programs for the SDL library:
checkkeys Watch the key events to check the keyboard
loopwave Audio test -- loop playing a WAV file
loopwavequeue Audio test -- loop playing a WAV file with SDL_QueueAudio
testaudioinfo Lists audio device capabilities
testerror Tests multi-threaded error handling
testfile Tests RWops layer
testgl2 A very simple example of using OpenGL with SDL
testiconv Tests international string conversion
testjoystick List joysticks and watch joystick events
testkeys List the available keyboard keys
testloadso Tests the loadable library layer
testlock Hacked up test of multi-threading and locking
testmultiaudio Tests using several audio devices
testoverlay2 Tests the overlay flickering/scaling during playback.
testplatform Tests types, endianness and cpu capabilities
testsem Tests SDL's semaphore implementation
testshape Tests shaped windows
testsprite2 Example of fast sprite movement on the screen
testthread Hacked up test of multi-threading
testtimer Test the timer facilities
testver Check the version and dynamic loading and endianness
testwm2 Test window manager -- title, icon, events
torturethread Simple test for thread creation/destruction
controllermap Useful to generate Game Controller API compatible maps
