When in a buffer (whose content is not very important to you) try:

  M-x eval-expression

Then enter

  (emacs-version 'bluntschli)

and see what happens :)

Of course, any value besides 'bluntschli will do, as long as it is not
nil.

Of course, since it doesn't make a difference, you'll use t to not
coufuse your readers.

Cheers
