So the above doesn't seem to > be what Emacs currently aims for. I think that currently Emacs doesn't aim for anything specific. Parts do not use ~/.emacs.d/, others use it unconditionally, others conditionally (like the ~/.emacs vs. ~/.emacs.d/init.el resolution). What I'm proposing would be automatic if the fragments of code that currently hardcode ~/.emacs.d/ (or, now, user-emacs-directory) were changed to use user-emacs-file (or whatever the name). It is not an important issue anyway; I'd prefer to defer to the user, but both answers are OK. Juanma
