actually a regular expression; it should always start with @samp{\`}.

actually a regular expression; it is matched against directory names
anchored at the first character, so it should start with @samp{\`}, to
support directory names with embedded newlines (which will defeat
@samp{^}). The @var{to} string should be an ordinary absolute

You can set this variable in @file{site-init.el} to describe the
abbreviations appropriate for your site.

A list of elements of the form (FROM . TO), each meaning to replace
FROM with TO when it appears in a directory name. This replacement is
done when setting up the default directory of a newly visited file.
*Every* FROM string should start with \"\\\\`\".
FROM is matched against directory names anchored at the first
character, so it should start with a \"\\\\`\", or, if directory
names cannot have embedded newlines, with a \"^\".
FROM and TO should be equivalent names, which refer to the
same directory. Do not use `~' in the TO strings;
