This used to be our system and we found it very confusing in practice. Basically the code that was logically related to subsystem `foo` was divided between two directories, and that caused mental discord. I can't exactly explain *why*, but it certainly did, and hence we were unhappy enough to switch over to the current system. Note that you can use the `#[path=...]` attribute to override the defaults if you choose. Niko [1] If you are using emacs, I strongly suggest enabling the uniquify settings <http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/uniquify>. Otherwise you get useless buffer names like `mod.rs<2>` rather than `foo/mod.rs` and so on. I would hope that vim and SublimeText2 and whatever new-fangled editors people are using these days have similar options. _______________________________________________ Rust-dev mailing list Rust-dev@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
