Re: Scratch buffer annoyance

[Richard Stallman]

    Whose definition could be just

    (defvar buffer-auto-mode-alist
      (append
        '(("\\`\*scratch\*\\'" . lisp-interaction-mode))
        auto-mode-alist))

A user could set it that way, but I don't want to include the value of
auto-mode-alist in the default value.  I would rather keep buffer names
and file names separate and have separate features to act on them.
