| initial-buffer-choice is a variable defined in `startup.el'.
| Its value is nil
| 
| Documentation:
| Buffer to show after starting Emacs.
| If the value is nil and `inhibit-startup-screen' is nil, show the
| startup screen.  If the value is string, visit the specified file or
| directory using `find-file'.  If t, open the `*scratch*' buffer.
| 
| You can customize this variable.

| This variable was introduced, or its default value was changed, in
