Subject: allow loading initialization from .org file -- would be breaking change
Date: Thu, 18 Nov 2010 09:48:38 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <871v6d4cdh.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

It is now possible to load a user's initialization from emacs-lisp code
blocks embedded in Org-mode files using the `org-babel-load-file'
command.  Currently users of this setup must still have an elisp init.el
function which loads up their .org files.  See for example this fairly
widely used configuration [1] which uses this init file [2].

Would it make sense to begin loading .init.org and .emacs.org files by
default.  This would be a breaking change for any users who have both
.init.el and .init.org, and what's worse it would overwrite the .init.el
file when the embedded elisp is tangled out of the Org-mode file.

Best -- Eric
