### Standards compliancy

A few common platform idioms are supported, some are custom to ST2 in lieu of existing standards:

| type | name | supported | comments |
|------------------------------------|
| env  | **HTTP_PROXY=** | ✔ | - |
| dir  | **.config/** | ✔ | Albeit also using it as cache storage (which it shouldn't be) |
| file | **.netrc** | ✔ | Also supporting **non-standard alternative**. |
| file | **.desktop** | ✔ | |
| doc  | **man page**  | ✔ | LSB |
| doc | **NEWS** | ✔ | |
| doc | **releases.json** | ✔ | Not a widely used format. |
| doc | **PKG-INFO** | ✔ | [PEP |
| doc | **doap.xml** | ✘ | Not used. |
| src | **[plugin scheme](wiki/plugin+meta+data)** | ✔ | Used by PHP libconfig and Python pluginconf. |
| src | **Makefile** | ✔ | - |
| src | **Packfile** | ✔ | Non-standard. Used by XPM. |
