System Location
Documentation for the above template (sometimes hidden from view).

Specify each row with {{Game data/config| (for configuration files) or {{Game data/saves| (for save game data). The first parameter is for the data type, the second parameter is the path.

Where possible use environmental variables instead of manual paths (e.g. $HOME/Library/Application Support/<game>/, not /Users/<user-id>/Library/Application Support/<game>/) since these will automatically expand when used to match the path on the user's end.

Using notes

Add a note if the folder path needs further explanation, e.g. Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss has a SAVE0 folder that isn't actually one of the user's save files.

Example usage

{{Game data|
{{Game data/saves|macOS|{{p|macoshome}}/Library/Application Support/Borderlands The Pre-Sequel/WillowGame/Config/}}
}}

This produces:

System Location
macOS $HOME/Library/Application Support/Borderlands The Pre-Sequel/WillowGame/Config/
