[Qgis-developer] Processing scripts in stand-alone Python scripts

[Victor Olaya]

I think this change that i just added should help with that

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/commit/08a8b6095f09ffc88b8bf034470b1c5a3cab3486

Now the default scripts folder will always be in the users folder, no
matter how Processing is used/called.

Hope this helps!
