:-) :-) Hahaa! LOL! I was thinking exactly those words earlier this
morning, while trying to debug a complicated "cond" statement that tries
to figure out on which computer the Emacs is being starting, and which
windowing system is being used on it.

But I've stopped trying to maintain my PS:<LIMAN>EMACS.INIT. (Is anyone

Can you expand on how using Org for this is done? Examples?
Documentation?
