List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Xref: main.gmane.org gmane.emacs.devel:4297 X-Report-Spam: http://spam.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel:4297 Up until fairly recently, if you gave Emacs any command line arguments (e.g. a filename, or -f function), Emacs wouldn't display the splash screen on startup. I'm not connected to the 'net right now, so I can't look at the CVS logs, but from looking at the ChangeLog, I'm guessing it happened as a side-effect of the following change: 2002-01-29 Pavel Jan=EDk * startup.el (normal-splash-screen, display-splash-screen): New functions (separated from command-line-1). (command-line-1): Use them. Was this effect intentional? If not, I would very much like to revert to the previous behavior of Emacs 21.1 and Emacs 20. When testing ibuffer and other packages, I often do: emacs -q --no-site-file -f ibuffer and it's annoying to have to hit a key to get past the splash screen.
