What about .emacs.d/backups? ~/.emacs.d is quite common, containing =20 default.el, auto-save-list or such. It could also be home for =20 session and desktop files, private Elisp ... BTW, I'd prefer to have the options of "traditional" and unified =20 backup. And probably it would be a good idea to have another choice =20 between flat and in a tree "unified" backup. Why is it such a huge problem to make a complete proposal? -- Greetings Pete The problem with the French is that they don't have a word for =AB =20 entrepreneur =BB. =96 George W. Bush
