Subject: Bug or feature?
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2020 15:47:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87tv1i6ufl.fsf@yandex.com> (raw)
Suppose you do
1. emacs <RET>
2. M-x gnus <RET>
We will assume this works - it generally does if your ~/.emacs and
~/.gnus.el are good :-). But
1. emacs -q <RET>
2. M-x load-library <RET>
3. ~/.emacs <RET>
4. M-x gnus <RET>
will produce an error. You must do
i. M-x load-library <RET>
ii. ~/.gnus.el <RET>
before step (4). We assume that the file ~/.emacs does not have the line
(load-library "~/.gnus.el").
Is this simply a feature of the "-q" option or a bug?
Best wishes,
Colin Baxter
