Re: [Bug-apl] .apl.history

Dear Juergen,

If $HOME is there, why don't you default to $HOME/.apl.history rather than just .apl.history?  That would portably-enough solve the problem of not getting .apl.history files all over the place.  Just use whatever algorithm you are using for the .gnu-apl directory.

Thanks.

Blake

Hi Blake,

I don't have to. If I don't find $HOME then the preferences file in $HOME is not read and
the /etc/gnu-apl.d/preferences file is read. If that file would use $HOME then its purpose
of having a fallback in case $HOME is not working would be undermined.
