So do I, yet probably less frequently than Bram, and probably less =

universally as well, but I do like A-A-P: all the Makefiles I converted =

get smaller, cleaner, and more legible.  I should probably take another =

serious dive in the documentation, as I'm getting rusted at always using =

the same limited set of tricks :-).

The only bit that I find irritating, and this since my very first days =

with A-A-P,  is all those prominent AAPDIR everywhere.  It appears I'm =

just unable to get used at seeing them.  They also pollute inter-machine =

synchronisation as the logs get renamed all the time.  Bram says he does =

not want to hide these directories, because names that would work on =

every platform (yet there is already an `~/.aap/').

Moreover, as I almost never go the logs in AAPDIR, I observe they are =

rarely useful in practice in my case.  Not necessary that they should be =

ditched, Bram says they are really useful when you need them.  Still, =

I wish aap be more discrete and hide AAPDIR somehow, and maybe refrain =

from renaming log files.
