I've known of ./@ for many years and have only rarely used it, and it does make other users ask why they can see a file called ./@. (I'm not a Dr*pbox user.) I'm all for dumping it completely but we won't know of users that do need it and why until we make it stop working for them and they speak up. So how about adding an option to produce it, the current behaviour, but having that off by default. Then they can call in here, or read the fine manual, learn of the new option and recover. The manual would warn it's to be removed completely at $futuredate and they should pipe up in protest if they care.
