This argument presupposes that ".emacs" on its own should be considered an extension, which is the very thing under dispute. If it's not considered an extension, it gets renamed to ".emacs.1", just the same as any other file with no extension, e.g. "foo" to "foo.1". So it's equally consistent whichever way you think of it. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
