I really don't like the idea of hidden directories with potentially critical information. If we are going to have per-bug directories could we choose an arrangement that sorts a bug and all its attendant data together in an ls listing? I don't have strong prefs, but as an random place to start, why not: N-info N-dir/ ls does the right thing, and you can ignore all the -dir files if you want to with a simple "grep -v", or even "ls *-[^d]*" or similar, and you can make sure to copy all of a bug's related info via "cp -a N-* dest". -- Rob Browning rlb @defaultvalue.org, @linuxdevel.com, and @debian.org Previously @cs.utexas.edu GPG=1C58 8B2C FB5E 3F64 EA5C 64AE 78FE E5FE F0CB A0AD _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
