Hello, we have a user who wants to always open Emacs with a new "untitled" buffer so he can start writing right away without having to think of a file name first (similar to a "New Document" feature in Mac and Windows programs). If we try this in site-start.el: (generate-new-buffer "untitled") (switch-to-buffer "untitled") we are almost there - Emacs starts with the new "untitled" buffer. However, if he then exits Emacs, Emacs does not warn about a modified buffer and potential data loss, although the buffer is marked dirty. How can we get the usual behaviour for this new buffer? Many thanks in advance, Stefan -- Dr. Stefan Vollmar, Dipl.-Phys.
