[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Thanks for reviewing! Almost all fixed with some comments:

The whole Emacs user manual only referenced user-emacs-directory once when talking about ~/.emacs.d. OTOH ~/.emacs.d is used across the manual. I think ~/.emacs.d is better.

I prefer active voice than passive voice but don’t object the latter. So I changed it accordingly.
