That should suffice. However, the $HOME/.uml path can be relocated for uml with the uml_dir= option (documented in $uml_binary --help), so you have plenty of choices; additionally, uml_mconsole accepts a full path to the socket file (even if it is not a nice API, adding an option matching uml_dir would be better IMHO, suggestions are accepted). -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
