Hi Maurice:

I thought you would be amused by revision 11326.

When searching all our source files for instances of "\.rc" last night I
noticed the following clobbered commentary in bindings/tk/tkMain.c.

         // Commands will come from standard input, so set up an event
        // handler for standard input.  If the input device is aEvaluate the
         // .rc file, if one has been specified, set up an event handler

I was concerned that my comment restyling script had somehow clobbered
that comment, but it turns out that "aEvaluate" and the inserted (or
missing) words before it has been in this file since its initial
commit by you back in 1994 (!).  That explanation took all the urgency
away from this issue, but I decided nevertheless to fix the issue by
replacing the comment with its correct form (found with a google
search) which is to remove "If the input device is a" from the
comment.  That fix for a 16-yr old issue (no matter how trivial) has
got to set some sort of PLplot record.  Do I get a prize? :-)

BTW, the ".rc" stays in that commentary because it is referring to
a different kind of file than our driver information files.
