For starters, a good convention for this is... filename.example.ext Examples: config/database.example.yml config/secret_yahoo_app_ids.example.rb
Keeping the file extension helps preserve syntax highlighting in your code editor of choice, if you care about such things. If you're going to have a dozen files and their duplicates, then maybe think about centralizing everything into a single file (secret_stuff.rb). That way, you'll just have one duplicate. -- Patrick -- SD Ruby mailing list [email protected] http://groups.google.com/group/sdruby
