User folder disappeared

[kendonB]

What is the correct way to set user-specific commands now? Just edit the source in the main code?

Editing the source code is not ideal as it won't survive updates and isn't standard practice. The user folder is now located C:\Users\%USERNAME%\.caster\ for development branch only.

To change rules that are prebuilt in the caster utilize How to Add and Modify Rules. In addition you should be able to add your own new files in the user directory as well.

Examples of custom rules. Don't forget to update the imports to castervoice
scen4.py
modkeysup.py

The documentation will be updated in the future for more much clearer and cleaner approach to this process. For now it's a bit of an awkward stage Caster development. Its going take a bit of time but were getting there. Let me know if you need any help.

In a broader context this issues been discussed in #382. Your input would be welcome.
