It would be nicer if the nprofile commandline utility had its own script in $MAPLE/bin similar to the maple and xmaple scripts.

That is the place that one usually either looks for Maple executables or appends to one's PATH. A single location makes more sense and is easier.

It would also be nicer if nprofile help-page mentioned something like the exprofile help-page's comment that, "The preferred method for creating the output  file is with writeto() and/or appendto()."
