How do I byte-compile everything in my .emacs.d directory?

Question

I have decided to check out Emacs, and I liked it very much. Now, I\'m using the Emacs Starter Kit, which sort of provides better defaults and some nice customizations to defaul

Answer 1

The command I use is M-x byte-force-recompile RET, it then asks the directory so, for example, I give it ~/.emacs.d/elpa/. It then recompiles everything in there, usually no need to delete .elc files first or mess with it in other ways.
