In my case I am opening dynamically generated pictures. Once picture is in Emacs, another dynamic picture is generated. I wish that find-file does not ask me yes/no when opening a file that already has a buffer. I want to simply open it without disturbance. I have tried following: (let ((confirm-nonexistent-file-or-buffer 1)) (find-file svg))))))) but that does not get noticed by find-file -- Jean Take action in Free Software Foundation campaigns: https://www.fsf.org/campaigns In support of Richard M.
