(2) ~/.emacs should be a file (not a folder) that is in your home directory. The dot in front means that it is normally invisible. You can 'find' the file to open and edit in Emacs using C-x C-f (find file). (3) Finally, I have installed a colour theme (solarized) by inserting the following lines in my .emacs file: ;;-----------------------------------------------------------------------= ----- ;; Colour theming ;;-----------------------------------------------------------------------= ----- (add-to-list 'load-path "~/lisp/emacs-color-theme-solarized") (require 'color-theme-solarized) (require 'color-theme) (eval-after-load "color-theme" '(progn (color-theme-initialize) (color-theme-solarized-light))) I'm guessing that I must have followed the instructions at: http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/ColorTheme=20 Now obviously all of this works because I have a file called color-theme-solarized.el in my ~/lisp/emacs-color-theme-solarized folder, and note that even though I placed the file (and others for the theme) there I still need to have 'require' in the script to make Emacs use color-theme.=20 I don't know if I had to install color-theme itself (don't recall) - I suspect it came with my Emacs or with emacs-goodies (I run Debian/Ubuntu). That is why you were asked what version of Emacs you were running earlier. So, I *think* I only had to install the individual theme that I use (solarized) but not color-theme itself.
