annotate lisp/startup.el @ 22111:38f78542051a

Updated with latest version. Changes include: Added checks for basics in messages using `error'. Added check for symbols that are both functions and symbols. These references are ambiguous and should be prefixed with "function", or "variable". Added auto-fix for this also. Added auto fix for args that do not occur in the doc string. Fixed question about putting a symbol in `quotes'. Added spaces to the end of all y/n questions. Added checks for y/n question endings to require "? "

;; one in the list below; first described means first handled.  Options
;; within each category (delimited by a bar) are handled in the order
;; encountered on the command line.

;; -------------------------
;; -version                  Print Emacs version to stderr, then exit
;; --version                 successfully right away.
;;                           This option is handled by emacs.c
;; -------------------------
;; -help                     Print a short usage description and exit
;; --help                    successfully right away.
;;                           This option is handled by emacs.c
;; -------------------------
;; -nl                       Do not use shared memory (for systems that
;; -no-shared-memory         support this) for the dumped Emacs data.

;; -map                      For VMS.
;; --map-data                This option is handled by emacs.c
;; -------------------------
;; -t FILE                   Use FILE as the name of the terminal.
;; --terminal FILE           Using this implies "-nw" also.

;; --no-init-file            "site-start" is still loaded.
;; -------------------------
;; -no-site-file             Do not load "site-start.el".  (This is the ONLY
;; --no-site-file            way to prevent loading that file.)
