+/* 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. */
