<para>

<command>&cmd;</command> is automatically run on login to the GNOME desktop environment to aid in the management of the locale specific XDG User Directories.

</para>

<para>

Should the user be starting a session that is using a different locale to that

which was used to create the original XDG User Directories, then the user will

be prompted to make a decision on whether to update the XDG User Directories

to the new locale or leave them unchanged.

</para>

<para>

The original locale that was used to create the initial set of XDG User

Directories on first login is stored in the file

${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/user-dirs.locale.

</para>

<para>

Should the user decide to update to the current locale, then xdg-user-dirs-update will be used to perform the desired action.
