It seems to me that (add-hook 'desktop-not-loaded-hook (lambda () (setq desktop-save nil))) ...would be cumbersome (especially for non-Lispy users). Is there any other use for such a hook (maybe `kill-emacs'? ;), or would it be just as good to have the customization option I suggested? Or instead to ask, when the user chooses to honor a lock, whether to then disable Desktop? Davis -- This product is sold by volume, not by mass.
