Is HOME used for any other purpose than Emacs does: to store the user's private init files? If some programs use HOME for conflicting purposes, could you please name those programs and describe the details? > I suggest Emacs use a different HOME variable=20 > underw32, something like %EMACS_HOME% or %EHOME%. I don't think we should introduce such a variable without a very good reason; hence the questions above. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
