How can I have a command auto-run when a file is opened from 'desktop
recovery' please? I want to auto-run "M-x linum-mode" when I open my
daily journal, which stays open all the time. Running that command will
switch off linum-mode for that file, which may stop "file-rot" that I
have observed in the past. This can, at present, only be resolved by
shutting down emacs for half an hour or so, and then restarting it,
and normal functionality will have been restored.
Thanks
Sharon.

Is this a question about Org mode?
All the best,
Tom

Yes, the journal is written in org-mode, and its one big file of daily
observations, and its a big problem for me.

Have you considered using a hook? That is what they are for, and
generally, I’ve found that linum mode in an org file can be annoying, so
in my init file I have =(add-hook ‘org-mode-hook #’(lambda ()
(linum-mode -1)))=, and, while I have Linum on globally, this disables
it for all org mode files.

FWIW, if anyone is curious, the following post gives some insight into
why that might be.

Thanks for this Sam, it is now working beautifully.
