I grew up on the DOS platform, so I know of it, and I have studied NT quite some. But I think ~/.etc is mostly a Unix thing, as behaviour of common applications on DOS or Win32 platforms differs greatly. Don’t know about VMS though, but if a “ls -a” in your home directory no lon- ger fits on one screen page, things are nasty, and thusly we decided to move most dotfiles. //mirabilos -- Sometimes they [people] care too much: pretty printers [and syntax highligh- ting, d.A.] mechanically produce pretty output that accentuates irrelevant detail in the program, which is as sensible as putting all the prepositions in English text in bold font. -- Rob Pike in "Notes on Programming in C" _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list Lynx-dev@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
