True.  However,

$ man ssh
[snip]
FILES
     $HOME/.ssh/known_hosts
[snip]
     $HOME/.ssh/identity, $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa, $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa
[snip]
     $HOME/.ssh/identity.pub, $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa.pub, $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
[snip]
     $HOME/.ssh/config
[snip]
     $HOME/.ssh/authorized_keys
[snip]
     $HOME/.shosts
[snip]
     $HOME/.ssh/rc
[snip]
     $HOME/.ssh/environment
[snip]
$

I guess the manpage needs to be updated...
