* Determine if emacs or emacsclient was run with filename(s) as commandline argument. @ 2013-05-10 20:40 Constantin Kulikov 2013-05-12 7:26 ` Bernardo 0 siblings, 1 reply; 4+ messages in thread From: Constantin Kulikov @ 2013-05-10 20:40 UTC (permalink / raw) To: help-gnu-emacs Is there a way to know if emacs was run with filename argument? Example: emacsclinet -c "/some/path/some_file" It'l create new emacs frame and open 'some_file'. Can I somehow determine or detect opening files from commandline? I tried setting up `before-make-frame-hook', `after-make-frame-functions' and `find-file-hook' and I discovered that find-file-hook is last hook that executed so I can't differentiate 'command line file opening' from regular user action. Why I need it: I wrote some elisp code that saves window configuration on frame destruction and restores it on new frame creation. emacsclient -c is set as my $EDITOR. I need some way to detect case when some program calls the $EDITOR with file name as argument because in that case I don't need to restore window configuration. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

I discovered that before-make-frame-hook and after-make-frame-functions is triggered before the find-file-hook, but command-line-args is `("emacs")' in each of this hooks. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
