First time Linux User

Ok Guys
I have never used linux before...
I built a cheap computer to run a file server at my house and I wanted it to double as a clan bot server. I am using ubunto, the newest one. I have java installed and can run it mafia from the .jar file in the Gui and learned how to set it up in scheduled tasks and terminal as: java -jar KOL/KoLmafia.jar

I have a problem, where is my script folder?
It did not create the folders that I expected to see by running it...

sorry for such a newbie question in advance...

Look in ~/.kolmafia I think.

If you don't find that directory, go to ~, do "ls -a" to see hidden files, and look for a "." file that looks likely. "scripts" will be under that.

Thanks
I found it, it was hidden under my home folder.
I didn't know that Linux made everything hidden by default and installed everything into the home folder. On my windows machine the folders are created in the same folder that the .exe or .jar is in.

Yes.

Both Mac and Linux store things in a per-user place that does not depend on where you've installed the program. On Windows, if you download a new version and put it someplace new, you have to mov e your scripts and preferences. On the other platforms, the new version automatically finds them.
