I expect that there are: anything that's relative to the MH Path
is susceptible. But again, there may be users out there who depend
on it, and moreso than $TMP.
I'm all for backwards compatibility, but in this case I'm with Lyndon:
I wouldn't even hesitate chucking this over the side.
I hate it when upgrades break my configuration. And I know
I'm not the only one :-)
I'll look into deprecating it (".." in a folder name). I don't
see a big rush to yank it, given the personal extent of nmh.
And the nmh(7) man page supports it:
If it is ü.ý or ü..ý, or starts with ü./ý or
ü../ý, then it's relative to the current working directory.
and has an example:
refile @../done refiles to $HOME/Mail/work/done, if the current
folder is +work/todo
