That looks better, but what are you going to do about getting rid of all
of these proc files?  Just move them all at once?  I really don't like
the idea of adding new ones, and want a plan for what you all are going
to do here moving forward.

I'll take this for now, as it is better than what you are doing with the
environment variables...
