This patch makes the three commands: mkvimrc, mksession and mkexrc

I don't see much advantage in this. Why would the user not type the
path including the file name? Currently you would do:
:mkvimrc ~/.vim/.vimrc
After this patch:
:mkvimrc ~/.vim
It's not really the behavior I expect: Either give no file name to use
the default file name, or specify the file name.
I do see a small danger: if the user accidentally types a wrong name
that happens to be a directory the file gets written in the wrong place.
Won't happen often though.
Hello Bram,
What about regarding the argument as a directory if the argument ends
with a path separator?
What is so difficult about typing the file name as well? When using a
directory I would actually expect people to use "vimrc" instead of
".vimrc".
Hello Bram Moolenaar,
Just make it more convenient, no more complex reasons. Don't you think so?
