Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
While I was poking my nose under ~/.config/heidisql to find out if there was any log files I could add to my other report, I found the settings.json file and had a look at it.
I was unplensently surprised to see things like this:

{
  "Servers" : {
    "LogFilePath" : "C:\\users\\gcarreno\\AppData\\Roaming\\HeidiSQL\\Logs\\%session\\%db\\%y%m%d.sql"
  }
}

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be a good practice to have those paths translated to something like:

{
  "Servers" : {
    "LogFilePath" : "/home/gcarreno/.config/heidisql/Logs/%session/%db/%y%m%d.sql"
  }
}

I'm aware that something like this:

{
  "SQLFile0" : "Z:\\home\\gcarreno\\Documents\\shows_updates.sql"
}

Is a bit more troublesome, since this can be any arbitrary path chosen by the user, but at least the ones that should point to to the ~/.config/heidisql folder are possible to translate, right?


PS: Will continue to hunt for a log file so I can better describe that first run AV 😄
