The reason, why I care for this kind of - tiny or basic
- matters - is, as explained already: an essay to meet
the - naturally partly unrealistic - expectations of
beginners, avoid bewildering and so on.

I mean `quietly-read-abbrev-file' is a good idea in the
case, the user keeps just one abbrev-file (as I do). So
why get prompted for the name?

All the best
