Sorry, it doesn't work this way. Calling this, I get the error, that
buffer-cycle.el cannot be found. So I've commented the two lines

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;; (load "buffer-cycle.el")
;; (load "cycle-shell.el")
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and tried

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
emacs -Q -l .emacs -l buffer-cycle -l cycle-shell.el
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Now there's the warning, that package cl is deprecated. OK, changing
again in .emacs

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(require 'cl-lib)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

And now I get the error,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, bash-completion
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Game over. *Please* provide me a test recipe, which you have tried
yourself literally. I really haven't the time to fight against packages
I don't know, I don't need, and I won't install on my machine.

Best regards, Michael.
