27 ;; X-win.el: this file is loaded from ../lisp/startup.el when it recognizes

29 ;; pertaining to X are processed and removed from the command line. The
30 ;; X display is opened and hooks are set for popping up the initial window.
32 ;; startup.el will then examine startup files, and eventually call the hooks
33 ;; which create the first window (s).
