There is one problem with using `insert-button': after starting Emacs it displays the message "Loading button...done" in the echo area. There is one clumsy way to prevent this. The comment in `command-line-1' in startup.el says: ;; display-splash-screen at the end of command-line-1 calls ;; use-fancy-splash-screens-p. This can cause image.el to be ;; loaded, putting "Loading image... done" in the echo area. ;; This hides startup-echo-area-message. So ;; use-fancy-splash-screens-p is called here simply to get the ;; loading of image.el (if needed) out of the way before ;; display-startup-echo-area-message runs. But this is unnecessary because image.el is already preloaded in the dumped Emacs. Can we do the same and preload button.el? This package is very small, and it's very likely to be loaded in a Emacs session (there are many packages using button.el including Help mode, man, etc.) After that, we could remove this unnecessary part of `command-line-1'. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
