• Emacs Configuration

** How it works

• Configuration is "On top of" the [[https://github.com/technomancy/emacs-starter-kit][*emacs-starter-kit*]] configs
• Emacs Starter Kit loads my martyn.el file which in turn loads Emacs/init.org using Emacs org-babel.
• This setup allows for easy update of emacs-starter-kit, and revision control of personal settings, and enables having a 'literate' configuration. A great example of this is [[https://github.com/eschulte/emacs-starter-kit][eschulte's literate emacs-starter-kit]]

** The martyn.el file within ~/.emacs.d

• NOTE! All config goes in ~/.emacs.d/martyn/init.org - /no config goes in here!/
• This file is loaded by [[https://github.com/technomancy/emacs-starter-kit/blob/master/init.el][init.el]], which is the standard /emacs starter kit/ [[https://github.com/technomancy/emacs-starter-kit/blob/master/init.el][init.el]].
• This file ensures my auto-generated init.el file does not yet exist! This may have occurred if there was a load failure previously.
• This file then loads and runs init.org using babel to make my personal configurations.
• My personal init.el file is then created via org-babel - Emacs initialised - and finally deleted.
