# Description
<!--
Thank you for improving Nushell. Please, check our [contributing
guide](../CONTRIBUTING.md) and talk to the core team before making major
changes.

Description of your pull request goes here. **Provide examples and/or
screenshots** if your changes affect the user experience.

This PR makes sure `$nu.default-config-dir` and `$nu.plugin-path` are
canonicalized.

# User-Facing Changes
<!-- List of all changes that impact the user experience here. This
helps us keep track of breaking changes. -->

`$nu.default-config-dir` (and `$nu.plugin-path`) will now give canonical
paths, with symlinks and whatnot resolved.

# Tests + Formatting
<!--
Don't forget to add tests that cover your changes.

Make sure you've run and fixed any issues with these commands:

- `cargo fmt --all -- --check` to check standard code formatting (`cargo
fmt --all` applies these changes)
- `cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings -D clippy::unwrap_used` to
check that you're using the standard code style
- `cargo test --workspace` to check that all tests pass (on Windows make
sure to [enable developer
mode](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/apps/get-started/developer-mode-features-and-debugging))
- `cargo run -- -c "use std testing; testing run-tests --path
crates/nu-std"` to run the tests for the standard library

automatically

I've added a couple of tests to check that even if the config folder
and/or any of the config files within are symlinks, the `$nu.*`
variables are properly canonicalized. These tests unfortunately only run
on Linux and MacOS, because I couldn't figure out how to change the
config directory on Windows. Also, given that they involve creating
files, I'm not sure if they're excessive, so I could remove one or two
of them.

# After Submitting
<!-- If your PR had any user-facing changes, update [the
documentation](https://github.com/nushell/nushell.github.io) after the
PR is merged, if necessary. This will help us keep the docs up to date.

Nushell REPL

This directory contains the main Nushell REPL (read eval print loop) as part of the CLI portion of Nushell, which creates the nu binary itself.

Current versions of the nu binary will use the Nu argument parsing logic to parse the commandline arguments passed to nu, leaving the logic here to be a thin layer around what the core libraries.
