"appname" is the name of application. 

If None, just the system directory is returned. 

"appauthor" (only used on Windows) is the name of the 

appauthor or distributing body for this application. Typically 

it is the owning company name. This falls back to appname. You may 

pass False to disable it. 

"version" is an optional version path element to append to the 

path. You might want to use this if you want multiple versions 

of your app to be able to run independently. If used, this 

would typically be "<major>.<minor>". 

Only applied when appname is present. 

"opinion" (boolean) can be False to disable the appending of 

"Logs" to the base app data dir for Windows, and "log" to the 

base cache dir for Unix. See discussion below. 

 

Typical user log directories are: 

Mac OS X: ~/Library/Logs/<AppName> 

Unix: ~/.cache/<AppName>/log # or under $XDG_CACHE_HOME if defined 

Win XP: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application Data\<AppAuthor>\<AppName>\Logs 

Vista: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\<AppAuthor>\<AppName>\Logs 

 

On Windows the only suggestion in the MSDN docs is that local settings 

go in the `CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA` directory. (Note: I'm interested in 

examples of what some windows apps use for a logs dir.) 

 

OPINION: This function appends "Logs" to the `CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA` 

value for Windows and appends "log" to the user cache dir for Unix. 

This can be disabled with the `opinion=False` option.
