Hmm, maybe it wasn't as obvious as I thought  ;-)

The changes take place inside a here document.  If you meant for 
the command substitution to take place at micro-suite run time only,
then alternatively, the here-document (or the backticks) could be
quote-escaped.  I don't care, whatever you prefer.  I just used
what matched atconfig: expand `pwd` at atconfig creation time.
I don't care much that it may fail if `pwd` contains a single quote.

Cheers,
Ralf
