~/.local/ is described in the "XDG Base Directory Specification": http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/ > On the "easy_install" naming front, how about "layegg"? Actually, why not just "egg"? That's parallel to "rpm" at least, and there isn't such a command installed on my Ubuntu box already. (Using synaptic to search for "egg" resulted in little that actually had "egg" in the name or short description; there was wnn7egg (a Wnn7 input method), but that's really it.) -Fred -- Fred L.
