When it was nowhere, i.e., you opened the buffer without "doing" anything,
then it should be the beginning of the buffer. When you're using desktop.el
and/or session.el, then the point in the buffer can be preserved between
sessions. And sometimes I think GNU Emacs caches point and when I re-open
the file the text cursor is at point where it was when I closed the before
before...
thanks. You are right, but interestingly the expected behavior - point
returning to the old position - was only re-activated after doing some
editing before switching. Before that, and here I am positive, it was as I
described.
