Re: Lost, senile or both

If you aren't using emacs, .emacs is irrelevant, its the emacs startup 
file. If you do want to use emacs, it would go in your home directory, 
or its contents might go in some file inside .emacs.d/ and be sourced 
from there.

It's probably safe to ignore it, but take with a pinch of salt... I 
haven't used forth in anger since the the '80s. Big emacs fan though.
