Xodc: more "environment" info

#1

I would find it convenient if the xodc tool provided information on various paths. I seem to write (command line) tools that want to manipulate the XOD project directory, the XOD libs, etc.

  • The XOD (default) project directory. It’s ~/xod on my linux. I’ve no idea where it is on MacOS, Windows, BSD, RedHat(s), Android, Commodore64, etc.
  • The XOD libraries directory, ~/xod/__lib__ for me.

Also nice:

  • The XOD IDE command.
  • Also, the version of XOD.

The ruby gem command does a good job of this sort of thing, gem env:

You can even ask it for specifics, like gem env path.

Not exactly what you are asking for, but the XOD 0.26.0 release comes with the brand-new CLI. See README.

We were not able to build anything on top of the obsolete CLI, but now we can.
