  • It's not clear to me why you are adding to custom-theme-load-path, which is for Emacs custom themes, when the question is not about Emacs custom themes but about color themes, as defined by library color-theme.el. Custom themes and color themes are different. Am I missing something?

  • @Drew -- I assumed the original poster wanted the best of both worlds -- i.e., that the O.P. wanted the ability to use the standard color-theme library, and that the O.P. also wanted a special theme called empty-void that was downloaded separately (with that empty-void theme loading automatically when Emacs starts).

  • Is the empty-void theme a custom theme then? If not, I still don't understand. (Not that I need to or that you need to help me understand. ;-))

  • @Drew -- I'm guessing based on a quick Google of empty-void emacs theme that the O.P. might be using emacswiki.org/emacs/color-theme-empty-void.el However, the file name color-theme-empty-void.el is different than empty-void.el. I just downloaded color-theme-6.6.0.zip from download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/color-theme and did a word search of color-theme.el and didn't see anything that looked like empty-void. I don't know if empty-void.el (cited by the O.P.) was intended to be a custom theme or was instead to be used in conjunction with color-theme.

  • A google search for empty-void.el indicates that it is probably color-theme-empty-void.el that is meant.
