Hello,

The new command `scratch-buffer' does not re-create the *scratch* buffer
like in startup.el.

The below patch fix this:
--- a/./installs/emacs/lisp/simple.el
+++ b/./emacs.d/simple.el
@@ -10221,7 +10221,8 @@ If the buffer doesn't exist, create it first."
       (pop-to-buffer-same-window "*scratch*")
     (pop-to-buffer-same-window (get-buffer-create "*scratch*"))
     (when initial-scratch-message
-      (insert initial-scratch-message))
+      (insert (substitute-command-keys initial-scratch-message))
+      (set-buffer-modified-p nil))
     (funcall initial-major-mode)))

Thanks!
