Can you automatically open a branch on load?

Can you automatically open a branch on load?

Is there an easy way to have a specific branch in your file open when
you load the file?

I'm sure that you could write a function that you could call from an
org-mode hook to do an occur or something like that.  Unfortunately, I
don't use org-occur much and the hook I think you need is in my .emacs
at work.  Given the right org-mode search function and the name of the
hook, I think it should be easy to do.  If someone doesn't beat me to
it, I'll try and get you a better answer when I return to work or when
I'm feel a little better and can do some digging.

Hello.
Something like this already works fine for me:

(add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'my-open-some-branch)

(defun my-open-some-branch ()
 "Start org file with some particular branch opened."
 (org-overview)
 (save-excursion
   (search-forward "Finances")
   (org-show-entry)))

You can easily write a couple more lines so that the branch that will
be opened is configured on the top of the file itself.

HTH,

Hugo

Or you can put a call like '(my-open-some-branch "Finances")' directly
in the org file using the same emacs mechanism as for defining local
variables (don't remember the details).  This has the advantage of
easy per-file customization but on the other hand might be a security
risk.
