I had to look up the Wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fanny_pack) because I wasn't sure what the word meant, and it mentions the word is considered "vulgar slang" in the UK, Ireland and Australia. > The name is nothing I'm married to, but when creating it I wanted to > have a more fun name than say, "branch-files.el" or something like > that. But yeah, the name is not the best :) I am biased and prefer boring names, but how about file-belt (as in tool-belt), file-ring, file-bag/purse/sporran (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Bags) or something more esoteric like file-escritoire. Of course these are just suggestions, the package seems otherwise very interesting. > Theo -- Philip Kaludercic
