I tend to follow, as much as possible, an ideal I picked up from a professor
regarding programming.  The concept essentially is one of emphasizing
efficiency.  Duplicating one file in multiple places doesn't appear to
implement that concept.

I believe such duplication implies a problem demanding a better strategy.

I don't own a PS3 either, I run YDL 5 on a 1.6GHz PowerPC laptop.  It is
possible that there are differences for how e17 runs within YDL 5 running on
the Mac than your environment.  The effort however is appreciated.  I'll
continue to explore how e17 works (working through the gpg-agent problem as I
do so) because I prefer e17 above other environments.
