I'm so sorry, but my telepathy module has a malfunction. Until it's 
fixed, I can only respond to what is actually written.

If you re-read what was posted, you'll find I was totally correct
and addressed the points raised:

The post talked about ~/.d.conf not being read, and "demonstrated" this 
by using an incorrectly entered option.  If you enter the option 
correctly, the file "~/.d.conf" clearly is NOT ignored.

The follow-up talked about the syntax differing from the info file,
and since the third post claimed the information was not at variance I
showed exactly which parts of the files referred to DO differ.

However, there is absolutely NOTHING in the posts that preceded my
response to imply that this was anything to do with $HOME differing
from the user's home directory.

I've no problem with WJM, but WJPBR* is not acceptable.


Phil

* PBR = plain bloody rude
