So there is a third way to do it. But like I said, I
don't like the idea of having it global. If you want it
global, I guess you could put that line in your .emacs
(just the line) and be done with it.

Both works but I like the whitespace there. Because
that is actually an empty list (or nil), and not a
place where you put parameters (like it is in C) - or,
it is both in Lisp.

Try it yourself with nil instead of the empty
parenthesis pair. (Then, obviously you need the
whitespace.)
