I try: $ emacs test.txt And I get a window that simply loads the following: https://i.stack.imgur.com/ecDDL.png OK, that is unusual, so let me add a few lines of text and try and save, having done this for over 31 years. I type, hit Ctrl-x and am asked where to save it: https://i.stack.imgur.com/Drihj.png Which file to save in? That is odd, why? Anyway, I type again "test.txt" and am told that the file is saved (and it is). Fine. Then I hit Ctrl-Q and exit but am asked: https://i.stack.imgur.com/DBuU1.png No idea what this is about, but OK, "no". ("yes" does not change the outcome). The file is saved and exists: https://i.stack.imgur.com/sgAY0.png OK, let us load this file again, with emacs test.txt I get a new "scratch" file loaded (same screenshot as the first one above). What happened to my created file (that still exists)? I am not sure how to load a file, or save it. How do I get back the old behavior? Thanks a lot for any help and suggestions! Happy to provide more information. Many thanks and best wishes, GT
