use
(setq default-major-mode 'text-mode)
for all new buffers (initial *scratch* buffer is different though)
Ah, but that's what started the problem. I originally had that, but learned,
via the help-variable documentation, that default-major-mode is obsolete, and
should be replaced by major-mode:
default-major-mode is a variable defined in `C source code'.
Its value is fundamental-mode
This variable is obsolete since 23.2;
use `major-mode' instead.
Documentation:
*Value of `major-mode' for new buffers.
Wishing to be up-do-date, I replaced default-major-mode with major-mode, and
so began my problems (or at least one of them).
