Info node “The Emacs Initialization File” mentions - init.el which is described in enough detail
- default.el which is found via “the standard search path for libraries” — what would that be? - site-start.el instead of which Gentoo has site-gentoo.el (I guess) — but when is it loaded and how does Emacs know to load site-gentoo.el? and why isn't it compiled? - early-init.el, “loaded before the package system and GUI is initialized” — is it loaded before or after site-gentoo? And does Gentoo load anything else, by chance? Finally, is there a difference in what files are being loaded between “rc-service emacs.user start” and just “emacs” in user's shell?
