I have a question about MicroEmacs 3.7i (the one I got from James Turner
which supports the 50-line mode in monchrome).  Whenever I invoke emacs.ttp,
the startup file, emacs.rc, is read from the current directory if it exits.

Say I have both emacs.ttp and emacs.rc in directory d:
If I invoke d:\emacs.ttp from path e:, the startup file emacs.rc is never
read.  Is there any way to tell MicroEmacs 3.7i to read the startup file
from a particular directory, like say setting an environment variable or
invoking emacs.ttp with some -flag option??

Many thanks in advance for help. I've had this problem for a long while.
