How to start Emacs with cursor at the end of a given file?

Question

Is there a build-in in emacs to open a file at the end? So without using a wc first, and then using the output to do emacs +nboflines filename

Accepted Answer

Silly (but working) answwer:

```
emacs +10000000 filename
```

Adjust the 10000000 if you have files with more lines than that.

Another way of doing it:

```
 emacs filename --eval "(goto-char (point-max))"
```

Note that the `--eval` ... is after the filename, as order matters here.
