There is no default.el or site-start.el and the site-init.elc file
doesn't give any clues:
<shell-command>
$ cat /usr/share/emacs/21.3/lisp/site-init.elc
;ELC\x14
;;; Compiled by root@terranova.warthogs.hbd.com on Sat Mar 5 01:41:49 2005
;;; from file /build/buildd/emacs21-21.3+1/lisp/site-init.el
;;; in Emacs version 21.3
;;; with bytecomp version 2.85.4.1
;;; with all optimizations.
;;; This file uses dynamic docstrings, first added in Emacs 19.29.
(if (and (boundp 'emacs-version)
(< (aref emacs-version (1- (length emacs-version))) ?A)
(or (and (boundp 'epoch::version) epoch::version)
(string-lessp emacs-version "19.29")))
(error "`site-init.el' was compiled for Emacs 19.29 or later"))
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
(byte-code "\30\302\"\x10\301\207" [Info-default-directory-list append
("/usr/share/info/emacs-21/")] 3)
</shell-command>
If I invoke
$ /usr/bin/emacs
when ~/.emacs contains only
(setq default-frame-alist
'((width . 80)
(height . 24)
(foreground-color . "wheat")
(background-color . "darkslategrey")))
The display colors are changed, so obviously the file is read, but the
window is (still) maximized. I will send a bug report to the Ubuntu team.
Thanks for your help,
August
