tnx for looking :D

How do you currently do it? all in .emacs or done someting like in

My .emacs is static, cloned from git repository everywhere. Last lines of
my .emacs are:

---8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<--
(load-file (concat compiled-directory "/dot-emacs.elc"))

(setq custom-file "~/local/custom.el")
(load custom-file)

; -- if there are lines below this, those has been added
; -- by some program -- and those needs to be moved elsewhere.
---8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<-----8<--

i.e. (at least) all customizations can be moved to other file.

I currently have a problem w/ customizations as those work well in
terminal with light background. Occasionally I read mail using my
Nokia N9 fingerterm which has black background (many things unreadable
there). I may end up ditching customization settings and do those with
setq's in these configuration files I have (that is what I've done in
all other emacs software)
