Then, Emacs checks if that file exists or not. If= it does exist, run the configuration wizard and subsequently delete the fi= le. If it doesn't exist, skip the wizard. This way too if you're fooling ar= ound with your .emacs, or testing the vanilla configuration, you won't have= to worry about the wizard or figuring out the switch for it. How would it work in a multi-users setting?
