Thanks all,
InitSplit did just the trick I was looking for.
As the documentation of it is quite bad, I'll include my current setup
as an usage example, just in case someone else is interested.
from .emacs:
---
(load "initsplit")
(load "~/emacs_customs/font-latex")
(load "~/emacs_customs/bibtex")
(load "~/emacs_customs/org")
(custom-set-variables
;; This you can do with customize:
;; M-x customize-variable initsplit-customizations-alist
'(initsplit-customizations-alist (quote (("org-"
"~/emacs_customs/org.el" t) ("bibtex-" "~/emacs_customs/bibtex.el" t)
("font-latex-" "~/emacs_customs/font-latex.el" t))))
)
---
The code can be abstracted more, but then it gets unclear to beginners
like me...
Best Wishes,
Harri K.
