When finding a file (C-x C-f), I typically use C-a C-k to move to the beginning of the suggested search directory and kill it, so that I may quickly and easily type in the correct information. However, sometimes (usually not the first time I find a file in any given Emacs session), C-a moves to the very beginning of the minibuffer (before the prompt), whereupon C-k produces an error message. I then have to manually C-f or M-f to get where I want. I'm pretty sure this is not the correct behavior, at least according to: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Minibuffer-Edit.html. I am running Emacs 23.1 on a Windows XP machine, but I have seen this same problem on Ubuntu 9.10. Thanks.

No, this means it is NOT to do with site-start.el. > A. If I Summary of your 4 cases: You see the problem if you start Emacs normally, or with --no-site-file. You do not see the problem if you start with -q or -Q. Therefore the problem is due to something in your ~/.emacs (or default.el, but this seems less likely). So you need to comment out things from your .emacs until you find what causes the problem. It's probably due to some external, non-Emacs package that you load, so I am closing this. But if it turns out to be an Emacs issue, please reply with details and we can reopen this if needed.
