agreed. i've always felt it was misplaced, in relation to the source
tree. i understand that it needs to be somewhere findable, but out of
the way, after installation, since we don't want to require perl. i'd
love to see it at the top level in the source tree.
continuing with the why-is-that-there questions, what is ./guide for? it
looks like it's an editor config file. is it something more?
My (limited) understanding is that when working in acme(1), one can
keep a file of commands - like this one - open in a window, and the
commands can then be invoked from the editor with various mouse
chordings, or something, so one doesn't have to 'leave' the editor
to run the commands. So the question now might be, who is using
acme and how did their local reference file end up in the tree?
