Now, I realize you added the ".export" explanation to the man page
but is there a particular reason why file in that directory have
to end with ".export"? Out of "easy of use" sake, should any
and all files that exist in that directory be expected to
be exports files?
I don't know if that's the best way to do it, but I think it would be useful
to have a way to keep files in the directory that don't get automatically
read. As an analogy, I have the following files in my /etc/init:
portmap.conf This is the real one that gets used
portmap.conf~ This is a backup file produced by emacs
portmap.conf-20100603 This is the file that came with my distro
Only the first one gets used, which is what I want, because it's the only
one ending in ".conf".
