xdg-user-dirs-update - Update XDG user dir configuration

xdg-user-dirs-update updates the current state of the users user-dirs.dirs. If none existed before then
       one is created based on the system default values, or falling back to the old non-translated filenames if
       such directories exists. The list of old directories used are: ~/Desktop, ~/Templates and ~/Public.

       If an old configuration exists it is updated with any new default directories. Additionally, any
       configured directories that point to non-existing locations are reset by pointing then to the users home
       directory. This typically happens when the users removed the directory, so they likely don't want to use
       it anymore.

       On the first run a user-dirs.locale file is created containing the locale that was used for the
       translation. This is used later by GUI tools like xdg-user-dirs-gtk-update to detect if the locale was
       changed, letting you to migrate from the old names.

       xdg-user-dirs-update is normally run automatically at the start of a user session to update the XDG user
       dirs according to the users locale.

       The XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable determines where the user-dirs.dirs file is located.

       The XDG user dirs configuration is stored in the user-dirs.dirs file in the location pointed to by the
       XDG_CONFIG_HOME environment variable.

       The following options are understood:

       --help
           Print help output and exit.

       --force
           Update existing user-dirs.dirs, but force a full reset. This means: Don't reset nonexisting
           directories to HOME, rather recreate the directory. Never use backwards compatible non-translated
           names. Always recreate user-dirs.locale.

       --dummy-outputPATH
           Write the configuration to PATH instead of the default configuration file. Also, no directories are
           created.

       --setNAMEPATH
           Sets the XDG user dir with the given name.

           NAME should be one of the following:
               DESKTOP
               DOWNLOAD
               TEMPLATES
               PUBLICSHARE
               DOCUMENTS
               MUSIC
               PICTURES
               VIDEOS

           PATH must be an absolute path, e.g.  $HOME/Some/Directory.
