Re: Automatically performing simple tasks at startup

[Pavel Sokolov <sokolov.p.a@gmail.com>]

Hi, roosh1,

You may use after-init-hook to do (1) and (2) at start-up. Sample code
is following:

(add-hook 'after-init-hook #'(lambda ()
			       (split-window-vertically)
			       (other-window 1)
			       (run-scheme "you-arg-here")))

Also you may add same code to the 'find-file-hook hook to do (3)
automatically.

Cheers
