+/* Think twice before editing this file. Generated automatically by configure.
+
+ The file startup.el guesses at reasonable values for load-path, exec-path,
+ and lock-directory. This means that if you move emacs and its associated
+ sub-tree to a different place in the filesystem, or to a different machine,
+ you won't have to do anything for it to work.
+
+ If you define the paths in this file then they will take precedence over
+ any value generated by the heuristic in startup.el. The hardcoded paths
+ will be checked to see if they are valid, in which case they will be used.
+ Otherwise the editor will attempt to make its normal guess.
+
+ See the NEWS file for a description of the heuristic used to locate the lisp
+ and exec directories at startup time. If you are looking at this file
+ because you are having trouble, then you would be much better off arranging
+ for those heuristics to succeed than defining the paths in this file.
+
+ ** Let me say that again. If you're editing this file, you're making
+ ** a mistake. Re-read the section on installation in ../etc/NEWS.
+
+ If it defines anything, this file should define some subset of the following:
+
+ PATH_PREFIX The default value of `prefix-directory'. This is the
+ default root for everything.
+
+ PATH_LOADSEARCH The default value of `load-path'.
+
+ PATH_EXEC The default value of `exec-directory' and `exec-path'.
+ (exec-path also contains the value of whatever is in
+ the PATH environment variable.)
+
+ PATH_DATA The default value of `data-directory'. This
+ is where architecture-independent files are
+ searched for.
+
+ PATH_LOCK The name of the directory that contains lock files
+ with which we record what files are being modified in
+ Emacs. This directory should be writable by everyone.
+ If this is specified, the string must end with a slash!
+
+ PATH_SUPERLOCK The name of the file !!!SuperLock!!! in the lock
+ directory. You probably should let this default...
+
+ PATH_INFO The default value of `Info-directory-list'.
+ This is where info files are searched for. */
