Hi,
First, thanks for sharing this excellent project.
Forgive my noobishness but the recommanded way to define user specific customisations is not clear to me.
I went for the $USERNAME.org way but I then got caught by the fact that "make" did create the $USERNAME.el[c] files, but "make clean" did not remove them.

I fully understand why you would not want to delete .el[c] files outside of starter-kit-* but maybe a warning would be helpful
(or documenting the proper to achieve user specific customisation if I am mistaken).

Best Regards,

B.

Make does not remove the $USERNAME.el files because some users may
prefer to write raw elisp files rather than hold their configuration in
elisp code blocks embedded in a $USERNAME.org file.

I would suggest writing your personal configuration in a $USERNAME.org
file.

Thanks for the feedback. The Makefile behavior does indeed make sense.
Keep up the good work !
Best Regards,
