The following change:
* files.el (set-visited-file-name): Report the error
for "empty filename" earlier.
has problems.
Do `emacs -q -nbc'
C-x C-w
Call your new file "test", or whatever.
Result:
set-visited-file-name: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil
The small patch below fixes the problem, but since I do not know the
reason for the recent change, I am not sure that it is correct. I can
install if it looks OK.
The problem is that buffer-file-name is nil for the *scratch* buffer
and (file-name-nondirectory nil) yields the above error.
