Is there a pre-defined feature or package that gives Emacs this capability? I've seen the context saving and restoring packages. They all seem to have a feature I don't want: reopening all the files I was editing last time. What I want is not to open any files automatically, but merely for find-file to restore point when I revisit a file. -- Andrew J.
