That one line was longer in the past, it could become longer again in the future. I don't think we should toggle the presentation back and forth from version to version depending how long it happens to be. > Similary, I don't really see the usefulness of delete_old_cluster.sh > as a file, when "rm -rf" could just be presented on the console for > the admin to execute by cut-and-paste. I certainly would not want to run rm -rf commands copied off the console window. A slip of the mouse (or the paste buffer) and suddenly you are removing entirely the wrong level of the directory tree. But I wouldn't mind an option to suppress the creation of those files.
