It doesn't work for me for some reason, and the documentation seems to
imply that it shouldn't work. If using ALTERNATIVE_EDITOR="" started emacs
in daemon mode, why would the documentation tell the user to run the "emacs
--daemon" manually? Instead, what I get when I don't have an emacs in
daemon mode, is just emacsclient telling me there's no emacs daemon running.
Judging by your response, I feel I must be misunderstanding something, but
I don't know what.
