I think a clean space is a good idea, but the development link is important so Scribble can treat the files as part of the installation. It should be only a couple extra lines in a script, Makefile, whatever, to move the development link to point to the clean directory during the installation process, then move it back when you're done. --Carl _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://list.cs.brown.edu/mailman/listinfo/plt-dev
