(Sven wrote:) I don't see why you would not want this file to be written. After all it
serves a rather useful purpose. But if you really dislike this feature,
unset save-document-history in your gimprc or simply disable it in the
Preferences dialog.


The reason for inquiring about this file is because when open it has the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xbel version="1.0"
      xmlns:bookmark="http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/desktop-bookmarks"
      xmlns:mime="http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info"

    <info>
      <metadata owner="http://freedesktop.org">

I am not sure of why this is necessary for a file that is keeping track of what I opened.
 So I guess I am just a little concerned or overly paranoid.
