hi there,
i wish to change the definition of ~/ in the minibuffer. i have a folder
/Users/shug/GNU
which i wish to use as my base... it makes life a lot easier for me
since it allows me to seperate the OS X stuff from everything i do in
Emacs and the CL.
i have tried doing things such as:
(setenv "HOME" "/Users/shug/GNU")
or
(setq homedir "/Users/shug/GNU")
but it never seems to work.
the best results i have are by
(cd "/Users/shug/GNU")
but that just means i always start in that directory when looking for
new files... it obviously doesn't redefine the ~/ symbol.
does anyone know how to define ~/ as "/Users/shug/GNU"?
