It's unnecessary to measure this, because it has nothing to do with the real world. Yes, if I were a perfect programmer/designer, then I'd never have to (or, if you prefer, want to) rename files. Of course, if I were perfect, I wouldn't need/want CVS either; I'd just write the code and tar.gz the result, knowing that it was perfect and unchanging. > I know of at least one very successfull programmer who names all > his C source and header files with very plain and meaningless names > (letterNUMBER.c).
