Subject: Prevent emacs daemon from hanging on auto-save data with initial-buffer-choice
Date: Mon, 18 Mar 2013 19:46:27 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ki7qug$nd7$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)
Hi there,
I use emacs in daemon mode and I also have an 'initial-buffer-choice'
variable set. Sometimes emacs will crash when I am editing the file
that I use for 'initial-buffer-choice'. In this case, when I start
emacs with --daemon, it will hang with the message:
"todo.org has auto save data; consider M-x recover-this-file"
Since I mostly start the daemon from an init script, I can't confirm or
deny this dialog, so the daemon hangs forever. How can I bypass the
notification of auto-save data in this case? I don't mind losing the
auto save data if necessary.
Here was my attempt to do it:
(defadvice command-line
(around my-command-line-advice)
"Be non-interactive while starting a daemon."
(if (and (daemonp)
(not server-process))
(let ((noninteractive t))
ad-do-it)
ad-do-it))
(ad-activate 'command-line)
However, this doesn't work. I still get the same hanging behaviour.
Indeed, putting a 'message' call inside the advice shows that the advice
isn't invoked at all.
Any ideas?
