Variable: org-export-async-init-file

org-export-async-init-file is a customizable variable defined in ox.el.gz.

Value

nil

Documentation

File used to initialize external export process.

Value must be either nil or an absolute file name. When nil, the external process is launched like a regular Emacs session, loading user's initialization file and any site specific configuration. If a file is provided, it, and only it, is loaded at start-up.

Therefore, using a specific configuration makes the process to load faster and the export more portable.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Org version
8.0.
