起動画面にDashboardを設定しているEmacserは多いと思いますが、うっかりKill-bufferしてしまうと再表示できません。Dashboardバッファーを殺さないような設定もできますが、私は再表示コマンドを設定しています。こうすることで、Recent Listの表示もRefreshさせることができるので便利だと思います。

以下の設定では、[HOME]キーで前に開いていたバッファーとDashboardバッファーとをToggle表示させています。また、よくつかう作業を dashboard画面からワンキーで選択できるようにしています。

Emacs27になってから emacs-init-timeが小数点以下まで表示されるようになってちょっとわずらわしいので小数点以下３桁までの表示にカスタマイズしています。
