Hello,
I am trying to customize emacs 22.2 on Jaunty 9.04. I created a .emacs file and saved it in my /home/username/ directory, but it does not seem to have any effect. The file is empty except for one line, (linum-mode). When I start emacs now and open a file, I do not see line numbers.
Is there something I need to do to tell emacs to look for the configuration file?
