@cindex Emacs initialization file
@cindex key rebinding, permanent
@cindex rebinding keys, permanently
@cindex startup (init file)

  When Emacs is started, it normally loads a Lisp program from the
file @file{.emacs} or @file{.emacs.el} in your home directory
(see @ref{General Variables, HOME}, if you don't know where that is).
We call this file your @dfn{init file} because it specifies how to
initialize Emacs for you.  You can use the command line switch
@samp{-q} to prevent loading your init file, and @samp{-u} (or
@samp{--user}) to specify a different user's init file (@pxref{Initial
Options}).
