I'm used to keep files with snippets of code that I write
while I'm experimenting/using new tools and that I use as reference,
and that's an extract of such a file.

Therefore it provides a sequence of the features an average new user

value, then delete a tag, then rename a file using the tag
informations...).

OK, I'll check that.

You're right, I don't need it since the "." isn't a special shell
