(if (file-readable-p recentf-save-file)
(if (> (length recentf-list) 0)
(if (< (length command-line-args) 2)
(setq initial-buffer-choice (car (recentf-elements 1))))))
If there is a better way then this let me know. Not sure if command-line-args contains other commands sometimes besides files passed in as most switches seem to be removed from my testing.
Cheers

How do you check if emacs is opening from clicking a file or passing in a file argument in the terminal. I had set the function above but if I double click a file or pass in a file on the terminal I'd prefer this to not be activated. Instead the file clicked to be shown and to not set the initial-buffer-choice. I figured there is a variable for the file passed in but couldn't figure it out.
thanks

Setting `initial-buffer-choice' in your .emacs might be what you want.
