As a wrote in my previous mail you should not call desktop-read in your
.emacs file,
I don't remember seeing that. Here's what the manual says now:
To use Desktop, you should use the Customization buffer (@pxref{Easy
Customization}) to set @code{desktop-enable} to a address@hidden value,
or add these lines at the end of your @file{.emacs} file:
@example
(desktop-load-default)
(desktop-read)
(setq desktop-enable t)
@end example
Are you saying that the second option is a mistake?
Otherwise, it looks like desktop-read should set desktop-enable.
Is there a case where people want to use desktop-read without
setting desktop-enable?
I suggest we make desktop enabling into a minor mode:
- Rename variable desktop-enable to desktop-save-mode
That's ok, if we preserve compatibility with a variable alias.
- Introduce an autoloaded toggling function desktop-save-mode
That seems ok too.
- Get rid of desktop-remove
Why do that?
If we let desktop-save-mode default to nil, users that don't want
desktop saving wont be bothered. Users that want desktop enabling should
turn it on desktop-save-mode using customize, or put
(desktop-save-mode 1)
in their .emacs file.
Ok.
