I have installed calc successfully and I am familiar with autoloading. What I want to know how to is set up either default.el or the files themselves that I am working on so that if they have dependancies, that are not loaded thses will automaticly be loaded. What I have right now is (for the navigator package) (autoload 'navigator "location" "Navigator" t) (autoload 'multishell "location" "Multishell" t) , etc. where navigator is dependant on multishell. To run navigator I have to call each file up the dependance chain indiviually Meta-X comint Meta-X cmushell Meta-X multishell Meta-X navigator I would like to know if their is a way to set things up so all I have to do is type Meta-X navigator and it will start up with all dependancies taken care of. This would also work well for the diary, calender, holiday package. Thank You, Ryan Mulderig, Assistant Systems Analysist Earth and Atmospheric Sciences, Georgia Tech EMAIL: ryan@eas.gatech.edu
