I am not familiar with Xemacs. This list is for GNU Emacs.
You may want to try GNU Emacs instead, for binaries see here:
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/CategoryWThirtyTwo
The initialization file is then called .emacs. To find where Emacs think
it is located just open it inside Emacs:
C-x C-f ~/.emacs
