The .emacs file contains Emacs Lisp code that Emacs runs when it starts. There is no default or generic .emacs file that I am aware of; you just add Emacs Lisp code to customize Emacs to your liking. Or you can have Emacs do this for you, to a certain extent, by running the M-x custom command after starting Emacs. So this isn't a bug, though there may be a missing feature or missing documentation here. Should this entry in the bug database be removed? This is most certainly not a bug. "touch ~/.emacs" should just do it |
