I use symbolic links to it in each computer in ~/.emacs From the terminal do: ln -s /path/to/your/Dropbox/.emacs ~/.emacs I assume windows works the same. If not then put in your windows .emacs a single line with: (load-file /path/to/your/Dropbox/.emacs) Best, Jorge.

I have 1 .emacs.d folder, 1 .vimrc, 1 gnus setup, all linked to my different machine home directories from my dropbox folder. Works great.. Dave

Hi, I use org mode on two pc: - windows (from work) - Debian (at home) How can have just one .emacs/init.el file? I would store the file on a Dropbox folder that I access from both devices. Thank you Renato

I would store the file on a Dropbox folder that I access from both devices. There are a few options, described in more detail here: http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Init-File.html You can set HOME to point to your Dropbox directory, or use the -u command line argument to start emacs with a different init file. Or you can put an init file on each machine that simple does (load /My/Dropbox/folder/.emacs) -- Peter Davis The Tech Curmudgeon www.techcurmudgeon.com
