It seems to do fine with all but the first buffer. I'm not sure, but I'm wondering if possibly the initial splash screen is somehow affecting me. Personally, I'd like to do away with it. I liked just coming up to "*scratch*" if I had been visiting no files - and the file if I had - when things worked that way. This is an XEmacs feature (I believe that's where it's from) that I think the "GNU Proper" version could do without. There are plenty of other ways to inform the user of the version (IMHO). Is there perhaps a way to disable that initial buffer altogether? Is it set on a timer to go away? Can I shorten that time to ... say 0? =) I looked for a bit this morning, but I see absolutely nothing appropriate. Perhaps that is because I don't know what I am looking for. Could someone edify me a bit and tell me what I am looking for at least? =) Thanks in advance for your time!
