If I recall correctly, a few hours ago etcupdate -B resulted in removal 
of two files:

/.cshrc
/.profile

Is this degree of checking/removal a novelty?

(I can't recall the files' contents, or when I created them. I guess 
that I carelessly created them as dot files months ago without realising 
that I wasn't at ~, I don't mourn their loss.)

Re: the manual pages below, I'm reminded of where files _should_ be.
