Re: [Emc-developers] Forest obscured by trees (Empty directories in CVS)

Hi Fred

I think the only objectors might be Jon Elson.. 

The function calls are pretty much what I had in mind - The names are not 
that important as long as they convey some meaning. I'd have gone for 
emc_set... myself.

Tried deleting one of the unused directories earlier without success - Does 
removal not require Admin privileges ?

Once the basic config files are written, I *think* menuconfig and xconfig are 
automatically taken care of. This may take a while to do if you are wanting 
me to look into the possibilities.

Regards, Paul.
