Message-ID: <18C407FD4FFB424292D769FBD68C19872136DF@NIHCESMLBX8.nih.gov> (raw)

The man page for emacs doesn't mention that the +n option (to start up
at a certain line of a file) apparently only applies to the very next
file listed.
For example, if I say
emacs +10 foo bar
the cursor shows up in bar, at line 1 not 10. But if I say
emacs +10 foo +10 bar
then the cursor does show up at line 10 of file bar. Seems like the
right behavior, but it seems to me the man page should mention this
under +n.
Also, the man (at least the version here page points to
bug-gnu-emacs@prep.ai.mit.edu.
This is emacs 21.2.4, btw.
Thanks!
