Having run echo 'spacemacs' > ~/.emacs-profile, the .emacs init script complained that it could not find a profile spacemacs in my set. I believe this is because the value was being turned into a symbol, e.g. spacemacs would not be found, but "spacemacs" could be. To fix this, I needed to turn the read value explicitly into a string.
