Why manage two or more files, when one is fine? As I've shown, I have code to detect a stale init.elc and automatically recompile it, so there's no problem whatsoever with having it all in one file. That's my preferred setup. If Emacs suddenly refused to load .emacs.elc/init.elc, that would be extremely unnice. Juanma
