#890 closed defect (fixed)

Change default --basedir to fall back to ~/.tahoe on Windows if registry entry not present

Reported by: davidsarah Owned by: davidsarah
Priority: major Milestone: 1.8β
Component: code-frontend-cli Version: 1.5.0
Keywords: windows basedir Cc:
Launchpad Bug:

Description

This makes the --basedir behaviour more consistent between Windows and Unix. It shouldn't break existing installations that already have the registry entry set.
