One issue still to consider is whether or not we should default to writing game state in ~/.emacs.d, or in `temporary-file-directory'. Any opinions? If it can't put the scores in the proper shared directory for scores, it should use your home dir. At least your scores won't get deleted there. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
