Yes this is for autoloads. I think this is provided for you if you use the version of org-mode that comes with Emacs. If you want to use a newer org-mode from git then you should require org-install so you get the autoload definitions that go with that version of org-mode. > 2) I pull once in a while from the git repo and recompile.

It probably doesn't get defined until you have auto-loaded org-latex by using some function provided by that file. If you want to use the variable before that I think you need to require the package to force loading it early. > 4) What else is floating around that I should be requiring? That depends on what variables you want to use before you load the corresponding org package I think. > 5) Aren't (require 'function)'s looked down upon in the user's > customization file? They are? Not that I'm aware of. I add require lines for anything I want to have setup before it's called the first time (not that I restart emacs all that often but it happens.) I have requires for the following org packages in my .emacs - (require 'org-install) - (require 'org-protocol) - (require 'org-crypt) - (require 'org-id) - (require 'org-latex) Regards, Bernt _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
