As part of the ongoing effort to make emscripten more self contained I'm hoping to make `--embedded` the default some time today. (
https://github.com/emscripten-core/emsdk/pull/472)
This means the all config and cache data related to the emsdk will live in the emsdk directory and not in your $HOME directory.
If all goes well in a few weeks / months I will well remove `--no-embedded` option completely because I don't see any reason to maintain the extra logic (unless we find a good reason to keep it).
cheers,
sam
