Hi,
I would need to figure out the user's home directory on the unix port. So... I could try to find out what $HOME corresponds to. Can this be done in micropython?

import os
os.getenv('HOME')

Think about how you would do this in ordinary Python and always try that first. I.e. exactly as posted above.

@TheSilverBullet: Thanks, this works! I could have seen it myself with help(os)
