Starting in c-set-style linux

Starting in c-set-style linux

[News @adelphia]

 I'm new to emacs, and I was wondering what I need to do in order to start
emacs in linux mode with out have to "M-x c-set-style linux" every time I
start emacs. I've looked all over the web and can't find anything on the
subject. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd be very greatful.

(defun my-linux-c-mode ()
  "C mode with adjusted defaults for use with the linux kernel."
  (c-set-style "linux"))

(add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'my-linux-c-mode)

Thank you very much. That's the ticket I've been looking for. Works like a
charm. I've been pulling my hair out googling and looking through docs for
that info. I appritiate you taking the time to help out a newcomer like
myself.

Set the variable `c-default-style' in your .emacs file.  This is fully
documented in the CC Mode manual, page "Choosing a Style".  Something
like the following in your .emacs should work:

(eval-after-load "cc-mode"  '(setq c-default-style "linux"))

[The eval-after-load bit is to make sure that you don't try and set the
variable's value before the code has been loaded.]

eval-after-load shouldn't be necessary, if the variable is defined in
the usual defvar/defcustom way.

Whoops!  Thanks.

Yes, an eval-after-load is needed for functions (unless they're
autoloaded), but not for variables.
