Re: [Ebib-users] elisp function to start ebib on specified bibtex entry

[Ali T. <ali...@gm...>]

Hi Joost,

I finally got some time over to try this out again. The git repository
is working fine and I was able to use the function you wrote
(ebib-start-on-entry), which is great! My remaining question is: I'm
using autoload in my .emacs file to get emacs to load the
'ebib-start-on-entry' function when emacs starts up. I'm not very
cunning with emacs customization, so is the autoload function the
proper way to do this?

I'll let you know once I set things up with org-mode.

Best wishes,
/Ali
