Absolutely nobody is suggesting to > remove SAVEHIST, so this is a smoke screen. It may appear to you that it's clear what point you are trying to make. I can assure you this is not the case. To *me* it appears as if your point changes not only from one post to the next but even between a single post. So I hope you can forgive me for trying to put my understanding of your point in writing in the hope that we can both agree on what exactly we are arguing about. > We are talking about the *defaults*, and what makes sense for new users.

Is your point that the current recommendation in the documentation is good? Or that it's bad? If the latter, what is in your opinion a better recommendation and why? Roman.
