The file is highlight-beyond-fill-column.el, and I have this line in my .emacs (require 'highlight-beyond-fill-column) But after restarting emacs (22.0.50 on Mac OS X), hitting M-X and then trying to invoke the function highlight-beyond-fill-column, I couldn't find the function at all. Does library highlight-beyond-fill-column.el have this in it? (provide 'highlight-beyond-fill-column) For your `require' to work, the library must `provide' the corresponding feature. If the library has a `provide' call with a different feature name, use that name in your `require'. If it has no `provide', either add one to the library or use `load-library' instead of `require', in your .emacs. `load-library' uses the file name (sans extension); `require' uses a provided-feature name. HTH.
