System name:		tla
Type and version:	KN01 7.7A (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		PMAX-MFB

What were you trying to do?
	start emacs with the title bar set to "foo" well, not exactly,
	but it's a good example.  The specific invocation was:
tla:~: emacs -title foo

What's wrong: 
	Immediately typing ^X^B (to get a buffer listing) in the
	emacs gives the following:

 MR Buffer         Size  Mode           File
 -- ------         ----  ----           ----
.   foo		   0	 Fundamental	/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/j/w/jweiss/foo
    -title	   0	 Fundamental	/afs/athena.mit.edu/user/j/w/jweiss/-title
    *scratch*	   0	 Text		
 *  *Buffer List*  275	 Buffer Menu	

Note that the title bar did say that the title was "foo"

What should have happened:
	It shouldn't be opening random buffers, just because there is
	text on the command line.  The buffer -title is kinda cute tho. :-)

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	not sure

Got a random comment?
	Yeah, at least it doesn't open a file & when I start it in the
	background. :-)
