It will be automatically created.
It's not the right place for temporary files.
I know, but I want to keep it there for backward compatibility.
Which compatibility? This is an implementation detail of wcd.
For all those people who manually created the function. Those are a lot over the past 18 years, and I don't want to bother them.
They will continue to use the function they defined on their own.
The bin sub-folder is default on Unix. That is set in the binary and is also documented. I can use the -G option to change the location, but I don't want to do that in the default function. When the option -G is used WCDHOME has no influence on the location of the go-script anymore. This may surprise users. I leave the use of -G to personal configurations. Because it is a shell script, and personal scripts are put typically in ~/bin, I was thinking 18 years ago to put this one there too. Perhaps wrong, but it is not a big deal. If it is a problem for a user he/she can always change the location. regards, -- Erwin Waterlander http://waterlan.home.xs4all.nl/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
