No split window in startup, how?

No split window in startup, how?

[S P Arif Sahari Wibowo]

Whenever I start emacs with multiple file (to an X display), such like:
        emacs file1 file2 file3 &
it will start with split window.

Is there any way to suppress this behavior?

I already tried "emacs -f delete-window ... " but it didn't work 
(apparently the command was executed *before* loading any file).

Furthermore, when I open emacs with more than 2 files, it create the
"Buffer List" buffer. Do you know how suppress this behavior as well?

Thank you.

Yes, the command line arguments and options are processed in order.  Try

	emacs file1 ... file3 -f delete-window	# or delete-other-windows

Interestingly, 

    emacs -q -no-site-file file1 file2 file3 -f delete-other-windows

still shows the buffers menu buffer.
