Don't worry, they're at /$USER/$HOME
/{username}//home/{username}What is this path supposed to be?
/home/$(whoami)-- Frost
Please use
$HOMEinstead of this. There are configurations that do not rely on the usual/home/$USERformat. The root user is a good example, having their$HOMEset to/root.Oh heh, yeah, o'course! I wasn't really meaning that seriously, more just riffing off the thread of silly $HOME expansions. :3
Probably good to mention that in case someone comes along and thinks /home/$(whoami) is actually a good idea though, hah.
(Mac has normal users' homes in /Users!!)
