I need to conditionally load a file in my .emacs file based on the name of the host I'm running on. The code would look something like: (if (string= (hostname) "my_computer") (load "~/emacs/file.elc")) Unfortunately I can't find a function that returns the host's name. Does anyone know what it is (or has anyone written such a function)? -Rob rkc@xn.ll.mit.edu
