RMS and I talked about it, and came to the conclusion that DDT should
set the .HSNAME with $^S, by looking it up in INQUIR. Similarly,
DDT would replace SETMSN, thus fixing problems of HSNAME not being set
properly unless you do it yourself. Thus FOO$^S would always get FOO's
init. Thus what LISP should use would be
<HSNAME>;XUNAME .LISP. or <HSNAME>;.LISP. XUNAME (the difference is a matter
of aesthetics). The .HSNAME will always be set to something reasonable
where init files and RMAIL files can be placed.
