Emacs folks,

Hello, I am a new and relatively inexperienced emacs user.  I was wondering
if there was an easy way to make a minor mode apply to all created buffers.
I want to do this so that I can use the column marker mode in all of my
buffers.

So far I have tried applying the mode through mode hooks, but this strategy
is unsuccessful for modes that do not provide a hook.  Also, it seems like a
bit of a hack, so I thought perhaps there might be a better way.

Any advice for the newbie?

Yours,
James Aguilar
