That's what I was told earlier. I'm doing that.

Yes, I did. I installed 21.3 through a tutorial (the URL is in the
original post) and it told me to copy their .emacs file. And, not
knowing the behavior or purpose of the .emacs file at that point, I
simply did. After I understood what the file was for, though, I
dropped theirs and have my own (which currently does almost
nothing ;-)).


Thanks.
