  Not that I remember.  I've used "thimk" as the name for the Thinkpad
in the past under both Gentoo and Puppy linux.  Puppy is an older
lightweight linux that runs with root as the primary user.  That might
have been enough to have made me dig up the docs to create the config
file, but I certainly don't remember doing so.  To quote the old saying
"Memory is the second thing to go. I forget what the first is".

  Come to think of it, SSHing into "thimk" with Puppy linux would put me
in as root in the past.  I thought this was somehow due to root being the
only user on Puppy linux.  File dates in .ssh are...

* Sep  6, 2018 the former .ssh/config file
* Sep 22, 2018 authorized keys
* May 29, 2017 id_rsa and id_rsa.pub
* Jul  9, 2020 known_hosts
