I am using fedora 8 right now. I got an annoying problem in the emacs
come with the distribution.
Everytime I start emacs to open a file, either old or new,I always got
a default emacs message page. The page will dispaear when I press any
key. That is annoying to me. Is there any way I can disable this
feature?
Thanks.

If this is same screen you see when you do Menu>Help>About Emacs, then
adding (setq inhibit-splash-screen t) to your .emacs file will suppress
its display (and also the 3 info lines in *scratch*

The problem is that suppresses the splash screen unconditionally, whereas
I at any rate like to see the splash screen if Emacs is started without
specifying a file. I asked a question similar to the OP's a while ago,
and got the following suggestion for .emacs from Sven Joachim:
(when (> (length command-line-args) 1)
(setq inhibit-splash-screen t))
(There were other more complex suggestions from other people, but the above
works fine for my purposes.)
