I take it DTRT stands for "do the right thing"?

It doesn't.  It gets the message "Cannot open load file: eshell" in

That brings up a couple of windows & then says "Selecting deleted
buffer".

I would like to load all the files in those directories so that
(presumably) the commands will work in my Emacs.  I am obviously
missing something obvious.
