While using coot I found that it save it's states in these files

State file 0-coot-history.scm written.
I can confirm this happens.
Maybe this is just something linked to a DEBUG mode.... It would be
great if this state could be saved in the xdg cache directory, or
maybe create a Release coot without all the Debuging.
I agree these files should better be placed in XDG cache or some other
XDG-based directory. I have to make sure if these debug files are
present only in Debian-provided coot, or are they supposed to appear
always. I am not sure if it is a good idea to patch the debugging out
unless it is intended, as turning it on would require rebuilding coot.
Maybe the debug mode should be controlled by a command line option (off
by default), but I would better have the upstream to implement it.
I do not know what is the best solution...
The coot command line is quite verbose...
I am wondering if these warnings are important ?
Most of them are probably not.

The REFMAC dictionary packaged in Debian as refmac-dictionary needs some
adjustment to make usable by coot and make the messages above go away.
The remaining output seems to be purely informational. I stripped that
off from this email.
Thanks,
