Should we post some or all of our settings here, including self-written functions we call with non-default key bindings? What are the users we should have in mind? Here are a few of the settings I use: (setq inhibit-startup-message t default-major-mode 'text-mode mouse-yank-at-point t) (add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org\\'" . org-mode)) (add-hook 'mail-mode-hook 'turn-on-orgstruct++) (blink-cursor-mode 0) (setq scroll-margin 0) (set-cursor-color "#F00000") (setq Man-width 75) (setq Man-notify-method 'aggressive) (load "~/emacs/my-mark-line") (global-set-key "\C-xl" 'my-mark-this-line) (global-set-key "\C-xc" 'my-copy-this-line) (global-set-key "\C-xw" 'my-cut-this-line)
