Hi, I'm trying to install for a project the emacs mode for lean theorem prover on a mac os x; I already have emacs installed from here https://emacsformacosx.com/; the guide for the lean mode says that: "lean-mode requires GNU Emacs 24.3 or newer. The recommended way to install it is via MELPA. If you have not already configured MELPA, put the following code in your Emacs init file (typically ~/.emacs.d/init.el) " but I can't find any init file; already tried to uninstall emacs and install it again, but nothing changed. I'm maybe doing something wrong; maybe I'm even asking in the wrong place.Thanks for your time,  Diego

Perhaps this puts you on the right track:

  https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27869909/what-to-do-if-i-cannot-find-my-emacs-init-file

Generally it's not a problem when the init file doesn't exist
(yet). You just create it (and Emacs command "find-file" will
do that for you, conveniently).

The Emacs variable "user-init-file" contains the name of that
init file (which might vary depending on the operating system,
so it makes sense to look into that).

Of course, you can create it with any other editor (plain
text!), but if you are going to use Emacs, perhaps it's a good
plan to try that first...

And yes, you are right here -- welcome :-)

Just come back if you don't understand something in the above
link.

Cheers

Or ask Emacs:  `C-h r i init file RET'.

See node `Find Init' of the Emacs manual.
