Usually the scratch buffer contains (in red) this sentence: ============================================================ ;; This buffer is for notes you don't want to save, and for Lisp evaluation. ;; If you want to create a file, visit that file with C-x C-f, ;; then enter the text in that file's own buffer. ============================================================ Is this the correct behaviour? The behaviour of the startup screen is confirmed by this ----------------------------------------------------------------- lisp/ChangeLog [...] * desktop.el (after-init-hook): Set inhibit-startup-screen to t after reading the desktop. ----------------------------------------------------------------- but I cannot find any reference to the new behaviour of scratch buffer. Cheers, Angelo.
