Thank you! I've actually moved many of my dotfiles into a dot directory
:).

Does KDE now put all of its stuff inder .kde? That would be awesome. Seems
gnome uses 2 or 3 dot dirs as well as at least one dotfile :(.

The other thing I don't like about KDE :) - does it now allow us to change
KDE config files while running KDE? It is far faster to vi half a dozen
files than it is to flip through all the GUIs ( even if they're lightning
fast! ) . If I'm making changes for a bunch of desktop machines that I'm
supporting I want to be able to script it and I don't want to have to care
if they're logged in :), e.g. make changes, then tell them to restart KDE.

ciao,
