Description
The big three platforms all have some version of this:
- Linux/FreeDesktop spec:
- https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/desktop-bookmark-spec/
- $XDG_USER_DATA/recently-used.xbel
- Windows
- "Quick Access" section of Explorer and file selection dialogs
- macOS
- "Recents" section of Finder and file selection dialogs
Often times the platform automatically manages this well, but there are cases where it doesn't update automatically (like when a file is opened by dragging and dropping) and times when it would be nice to query that list
