Add hook by default

Add hook by default

Hi all,

We can install extensions via package-list but some extensions may require
to add hook by-hand

For example

(add-hook 'find-file-hook 'some-extension)


Can we do this programatically? so that users don't have to do this after
installing an extension.

Yes, you can run any code you want with:

    ;;;###autoload
    (blabla)
or
    ;;;###autoload (blabla)

Both will cause "(blabla)" to be added to the <pkg>-autoloads.el file,
which is preloaded when you run `package-initialize`.
