I thought about doing this too. But when I had to manually create the
trigger file, I'll have to also manually create the hist file. As the
hist file is read only and rather harmless, I figured I'd just leave it
as is. The filter file is a command file and this patch wants to remove
the confusion of writing into the file and having no effect.
