'
I rename a file from <lispcore>sources> to <paperworks>, loaded it, made a change to 1 function and called makefile on the file.  It asked me THREE times': '
<lispcore>sources>datefns;4 -> <paperworks>datefns;1 ?'
'
Twice before asking if I really meant to write it onto <paperworks> and once afterwards.  Seems like a bit much.'
