Re: [ELPA] New package: splash-screen

[Alfred M. Szmidt]

I really want to like this, it looks nice -- though I miss the
graphics.  But it is lacking the usefulness, and direction of the
original.  A new user would be totally lost as to what one would do,
reminiscant of the way vi starts up with nothing other than beeps.

Also, where would the information about recovering files be shown?

What about do you think about this?  

While I think the visit new file "link" is useful, I think it would be
good to keep the menu bar shown when the splash screen is shown, since
most users would be familiar with the File menu and want to open a
file that way.
