 Hello,
               I am user of emacs. I am working for samsung electronics
    co ltd India software operations.  I have a problem in modifying my
    .emacs file to support the specman .e files. I downloaded the
    specman-mode.el file into my lisp directory and add the following
    code into my .emac  file.
 
  ;;(require 'specman-mode)
  (autoload 'specman-mode "specman-mode" "Specman code editing mode" t)
 
  (setq auto-mode-alist
    (append (list
      (cons "\\.e\\'" 'specman-mode)
      (cons "\\.e3\\'" 'specman-mode)
      (cons "\\.load\\'" 'specman-mode)
      (cons "\\.ecom\\'" 'specman-mode)
      (cons "\\.etst\\'" 'specman-mode))
     auto-mode-alist))
 
    When ever i open the .e extention files in emacs i am getting the
    following error.
 
  File mode specification error: (file-error "can not open load file "
    "specman-mode" )
 
   I request you to help in modifing my .emacs file to support the
    specman files.
 
   - thanks and regards
     jayachandra

I think you should check whether specman-mode.el is in load-path. If 
it's not, then GNU Emacs won't find it. Another check is to invoke M-x 
load-library <RET> specman-mode <RET>.

So the advice is to put specman-mode.el into one of the directories 
containend in load-path. load-path can be modified in .emacs ...

You will also enjoy much better performace if you compile the .el file
into a .elc file with `M-x byte-compile-file'.
