Package: emacs24 Version: 24.5+1-2 Severity: normal As usually I run "man emacs" to examine command line options usage.
That I see: --script file Run file as an Emacs Lisp script. -l file, --load file Load the lisp code in the file file. or: --batch Edit in batch mode. The editor will send messages to stderr. This option must be the first in the argument list. >From this text it is hard to say difference between --script and --load options and --batch may be non-first argument according to "info emacs". Also man page doesn't point to "The Emacs Editor" Info manual which is canonical reference to Emacs. Please add information about "info emacs" and "CTRL-h i" - as a primary reference for Emacs usage. I even asked question at: http://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/17346/what-is-the-difference-between-load-vs-script-options as thought that man page is correct. -- Best regards!
