Hi Nicolas, My init.el file does (server-start), and also opens all the buffers (usually 100+) I had opened the last time I quit emacs (by using emacs’s included desktop library). The buffers in turn spawn child processes (aspell, some python IDE-ish autocomplete server, ...) I think these things are relatively common in init.el files, but not things that should be done by the async export process. Other examples might include gnus/other email/rss fetching, or automatic update of installed elpa packages. Of course this would not be an issue for me in particular, but I think it would be very easy for a user to get unwanted results. I guess you want to make it so that users don’t have to configure async export (beyond just flipping it on) in order to use it. But I don’t know if there is a sensible way to parcel out benign bits of initialization code from dangerous ones without user intervention. (“Dangerous” only in the sense of “should not be run by the export process”.) An interesting approach might be to extend the approach of org-export--generate-copy-script in order to generate an init file containing all relevant variable settings that can be read by the async exporter, but given that export hooks can call into arbitrary user-defined elisp, I don’t know if this could get off the ground. -- Aaron Ecay
