+Cordiale keeps its files where each platform expects them: settings and
+servers in the config folder (`~/.config/cordiale`, `%APPDATA%\Cordiale`,
+`~/Library/Application Support/Cordiale`), the keyring fallback in the local
+data folder and the log in the state or log folder (`~/.local/state/cordiale`,

+folder is copied across on the first start (each file is checked, then the old
+ones are removed; if that fails the old folder stays in use and the Debug page
+says so). Files are written atomically and, on Unix, privately (folders 0700,
+files 0600), and a settings or servers file that no longer parses is kept as
+`.corrupt` instead of being overwritten. The log is capped at 1 MiB with one
+rotated copy (`cordiale.log.1`).
