;;; Commentary:
;; I use different versionso of Emacs. Sometimes I have to copy-paste functions
;; from newer Emacs to make my customizations work. This is that file.
;; This is probably ill-advised.
;;; Code:
;; Load stuff in compat/ subdirectory
(dolist (file (directory-files (locate-user-emacs-file "lisp/compat") :full "\\.el\\'"))
(load file :noerror))
;; Other stuff...

;; (defvar FOO) only affects the current scope, but in order for
;; this not to affect code after the main `let' we need to create a new scope,
;; which is what the surrounding `let' is for.
;; FIXME: (let () ...) currently doesn't actually create a new scope,
;; which is why we use (let (_) ...).
