I can't find a discussion that led to showing the splash screen even if Emacs is started with a non-empty command line. Could someone repeat what were the reasons for this change? It seems it makes sense to show the splash screen only for beginners who start Emacs for the first time, without options on the command line. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
