This somewhat downgrades root privileges, but I cannot encrypt mail without
it. Hitherto I almost never ran Emacs with sudo.
The problem is, I cannot access any files without sudo. Now all of my inits
require it.
I was thinking of creating alternates. Is it possible for .emacs to be
instructed to ignore certain files and load others depending on privilege?
I *believe* I've seen people write code that enables Emacs to distinguish
between the OS it is running on and run the inits accordingly, etc.
