Description

Could support of XDG Base Directories be considered? Although setting a custom location is supported, it would be nice to be freedesktop.org compliant and use XDG base directories by default. So .config/pick instead of .pick, which pollutes the home directory.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement XDG Base Directory support by checking XDG CONFIG HOME and XDG DATA HOME environment variables, falling back to default paths.
