Subject: 26.0.50; emacsclient requires file argument

From: James Nguyen <[email-masked]>

Running emacsclient without specifying a file results in:

emacsclient: file name or argument required
Try 'emacsclient --help' for more information

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Entering-Emacs.html#Entering-Emacs

Gives the impression *scratch* should show up instead. (though probably
only if running 'emacs' regularly.)

In GNU Emacs 26.0.50 (build 4, x86_64-apple-darwin16.5.0, NS appkit-1504.82 Version 10.12.4 (Build 16E195))
