The change was a large one. This was tiny, IMO incidental part of it. > It looks to me that you simply decided not to insert the initial > scratch message if another buffer had been selected during startup. > > More precisely, if the init file leaves a different buffer selected. > That sounds right; shouldn't it be so? I don't see why the insertion of the initial scratch message should be conditional on which buffer happens to be current at that point in the start-up sequence. There exists a mechanism to disable the message if so desired. > Perhaps the right change is in desktop, to make it not select > any of the buffers it makes. No, I think it's right that desktop restore the order of the buffer list at the time you save, which is what it seems to do now. The splash screen is still displayed, BTW, but when you click through it you get your last buffer back. > I took that to mean that you were reverting the patch, but now I can > see it could be interpreted differently, as just reverting a certain > aspect of the behavior. Which meaning did you have in mind? I meant, revert this particular tiny aspect of behaviour, not revert the whole change. I intended "revert" to be a comforting word, in the sense of, "it used to work like this, so it can't be too crazy..." :) I'm happy if we drop this till after 22. _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
