I'd like to add some additional subdirs within the lisp/ directory to my load path.

Firstly, you shouldn't need to. All subdiricetories should be automatically added to the load-path at startup. Secondly, you should add external packages to site-lisp, not lisp. This makes upgrading easier and prevents confusion over which packages came with Emacs and which you added later. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
