It's working very well but I haven't been able to customise because I can't find the equivalent of the .emacs.local file. What I would really like to do right away is get some colour-coding for comment markers such as semi-colons and such. Anyone know how to do this and what file I need to make the changes in? Thanks in advance, Nancy.
