I think there is a small bug. If there is no .Emacs or _Emacs in App Data/ folder and there is a _Emacs file in C:\, then Emacs 22.1 does not read the _Emacs file. If I rename the _Emacs to .Emacs, then everything works fine;exactly as you said. In C:\, Emacs is looking *exactly* for .Emacs and not (_Emacs||.Emacs) when there is no init file (_emacs||.Emacs) in App Data/ Can someone reproduce the bug? regards, Shanks --
