Subject: 27.0.50; (blink-cursor-mode 0) in ~/.emacs has no effect
Date: Sat, 24 Aug 2019 15:10:17 +0200

I hate blinking cursors, and thus have

(blink-cursor-mode 0)

in my ~/.emacs since forever.  Some recent change in the master branch
broke this, since the cursor blinks anyway :-(.  I am sure this worked
until a week ago.

Interestingly, "emacs --eval '(blink-cursor-mode 0)'" still works, as
does "emacs --load somefile.el" where somefile.el contains just the line
(blink-cursor-mode 0).  But from user-init-file, (blink-cursor-mode 0)
does not have an effect anymore.
