Re: Use .emacs.d in savehist.el

[Richard M. Stallman]

    Though perhaps a standard function to do such name munging would be a
    nice idea, e.g.:

      (user-customization-file-name BASE &optional DOTFILE)

    if .emacs.d doesn't exist  =>  (concat "~/" (or DOTFILE (concat "." BASE)))
    if .emacs.d does eixst     =>  (concat "~/.emacs.d/" BASE)

    Then the savehist example would be (user-customization-file-name 
"savehist"),
    and .emacs would be (user-customization-file-name "init.el" ".emacs")

That does sound convenient.  Would you like to do it?
