If you don't care about autoloads (or you're not sure what they are) and
you just want a small ~/.emacs, then all you need is this:
;;; load dotemacs/*.el
(mapc (lambda (f) (load f))
(split-string
(shell-command-to-string "find ~/elisp/dotemacs -name *.el")))
This routine simply loads each file ending '.el' found under the
directory ~/elisp/dotemacs.
