Just one poor dev's opinion, but I prefer it when these files are |
| 10 |
created as .sample's or examples. Invariably there is some tweaking that |
| 11 |
needs to be done to the file, even when it's the initial version of the |
| 12 |
file. This also "forces" the user to get acquainted with the config file |
| 13 |
in question (samba and make.conf files come to mind). Of course, |
| 14 |
tweaking something like etc-update (or equiv tool) to be able to compare |
| 15 |
the sample/example file to the live one would be nice, but then I've |
| 16 |
just talked myself in a circle renaming the ._cfg* files, haven't I? |
