load calendar on startup

load calendar on startup

[knubee]

this is probably very easy, but i haven't been able to find the
answer.

how would one load the weekly/daily agenda view of org-mode when
starting up an emacs session?

thanks.

Have you tried

(org-agenda-list)

near the bottom of your .emacs file?

that did it. thanks.

(so i guess the way to have something load on startup is to invoke the
appropriate function somewhere in the .emacs file. make sense.)

Yes, .emacs file is evaluated at Emacs startup. :-)

There is also variable after-init-hook which contains a list of
functions to run after loading all initialization files. So, you could
also add a command like

    (add-hook 'after-init-hook 'org-agenda-list)

to your .emacs file. Now function org-agenda-list is not run immediately
but after all initilization. For more info, see the info node "(elisp)
Init File":

    C-h i d m elisp RET i init file RET
