That file is there because afterstep cpp's the configuration files (either /etc/X11/afterstep/system.steprc or ~/.steprc) and put the result there. It fails to delete it if the user zaps the xserver (C-A-backspace). Maybe newer versions of AS don't have this problem (it's 1.4 already, and there's a whislist bug filed against the current Debian package) Marcelo -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
