I ran into this because I exported all options from my "user1" login and imported them into my "user2" login.
Slick then wanted to autosave into /home/user1/.slickedit/autosave, but failed due to access denied.
So, I change it to be ~/.slickedit/autosave.
What should be used here?
No matter if "~" is recognized or not, Slick should not allow a relative path for somethings, like autosave --- or if relative paths are allowed, it should be relative to the slick config directory - not some random place in the workspace.
Slick "C" needs a pathname type, distinct from _str.
