You can make a simple emacs configuration file crisis.el for the situation when you break your init file for some reason or another. At least you ca= n continue to work until you get things fixed. Could include this in my pro= ject but will take time for me to release it. Meanwhile, make a simple crisis.= el yourself. You can then call emacs or as has been said emacs --no-x-resources When you finally fix your init files in development, you can again call emacs
