@cindex startup screen
When Emacs starts up, the initial frame displays a special buffer
named @samp{*GNU Emacs*}. This buffer contains
@dfn{links} to common
tasks that might be useful to beginning users. For instance,
activating the @samp{Emacs Tutorial} link opens the Emacs tutorial;

@vindex inhibit-startup-screen
If the value of the variable @code{inhibit-startup-screen} is
non-@code{nil}, Emacs does not display the startup screen. In that
case, if one or more files were specified on the command line, Emacs
simply displays those files; otherwise, it displays a buffer named
@samp{*scratch*}, which can be used to evaluate Emacs Lisp expressions
