Subject: Remote .emacs

Message-ID: <11b141710804061545n52f36fe7pe9f62213006bbd30@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hello all,

I have several PCs I work regularly and where I regularly use emacs.
Each time I update one .emacs, I have to update the others so that all
are in sync.

I wonder if there's already some code to:
- Load a remote .emacs from the net.  If there's no remote access then
use the previous cached one. Otherwise load the one from the net and
cache it.
- I don't know much about emacs lisp but if there are ways through
emacs lisp to get files from http or ftp or something, it shouldn't be
hard to implement this as a library required by local .emacs and ran
each time the local .emacs is executed.

Cheers,

--
