Re: desktop.el: autosave?

[Richard Stallman]

    So what do you think about this case? Presumably one of desktop and 
    savehist-mode should be marked as the preferred way of saving history.

Looking at desktop.el I don't think it saves minibuffer history
variables.  I can't find any code that would do so.  It seems that
desktop.el and savehist.el are complementary, not duplicates at all.

Where did the idea come from that desktop.el saves minibuffer history?


The real duplicates in that area are saveplace.el and desktop.el.
