Subject: Don't concat directories to file names
Date: Wed, 13 Jun 2007 12:22:03 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1HyVbf-0001Yc-Iy@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)

    -(defcustom image-dired-dir "~/.emacs.d/image-dired/"
    +(defcustom image-dired-dir (concat user-emacs-directory "image-dired/")

This has the right result, but for clarity such code really ought to
use expand-file-name.

    +@defvar user-emacs-directory
    +This variable holds the name of the @file{.emacs.d} directory.  It is
    +ordinarily @file{~/.emacs.d}, but differs on some platforms.

The text should make it explicit that this is a directory name,
not a file name.
