Do you have a suggestion for where to define it, then? I couldn't find any place that seemed "right". startup.el seems to be the closest. I suppose we could just define it in gamegrid.el, but then every Emacs game that wants to save state would have to require that file. Perhaps this isn't a bad thing, but I think of "game-state-directory" much like "temporary-file-directory". _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
