Right, my lisp is a desaster. But there are so many snippets for emacs'
custtomization around (in the org-manual, on this list, in emacs docs),
that I manage to fiddle something together.

And, it does not hurt to ask ;-)

Russel is always one step ahead :-D

But still, I prefer the elisp setup, since it's as Manish said:

I use one LaTeX-header for all, mostly documentation for customers.
That's how LaTeX is supposed to be used, right? Define one header file
with logos, page headers and footers, link colors etc., and that's it.
