I highly recommend it. I am using a simple set up: My ~/.emacs contains ------------------------------------------------------------------ (add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/local/src/org-mode/lisp") (add-to-list 'load-path "/usr/local/src/org-mode/contrib/lisp") (require 'org-install) (require 'org-babel-init) (org-babel-load-file "~/config/emacs/emacs.org") ------------------------------------------------------------------ and all the rest of my emacs config code is in ~/config/emacs/emacs.org There is a more sophisticated setup described in the org-babel manual http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib/babel/intro.php in the section "Emacs Initialization with Org-babel" > But how is emacs behaving? > > For example the customization frame would be able to write on that file? M-x customize writes things like (custom-set-variables ...) to the bottom of my ~/.emacs file. But I don't really use M-x customize much.
