On a Server I would like to run emacs.
If I save a file (buffer) emacs wants to create an directory called
"myhomedir/.emacs.d/".
The Problem is I have no right to write in "myhomedir". Iam just allowed to
write in subdirs like "myhomedir/something/".
What I tried so far to create a file "myhomedir/something/emacs" with the
following content:
(setq-default auto-save-default nil)
(setq-default make-backup-files nil)
and then run emacs with "emacs -l myhomedir/something/emacs".
The Problem is emacs still wants to craeate the ".emacs.d" directory.
My Question is: How to prevent emacs from creating this diretory or how to
tell emacs to create this directory somewhere else ?
greetings C.

Look at auto-save-list-file-prefix
apropos-value is your friend.
