change to saving app config file to a location in the user's home dir

Browse source 
basically, save it under ~/.llanfair always.

the reason being is that under certain deployments it's entirely
possible the current directory where the JAR is located _might_ not be
writeable by the application. but the user's home directory should
always be writeable.
