.emacs file

[david.beede at mail.doc.gov]

Help!  I have installed Emacs (v.20.7) and ESS (v. 5.1.18) on a Windows 98
machine.  I see from the installation instructions that I need to add a
line to the .emacs file.  No .emacs file was included with the Emacs
installation.  I looked at www.dotemacs.de to see if I could find an .emacs
file, but to my dismay it looks like I need to learn Lisp in order to write
my own or adapt someone else's .emacs.  And all I wanted was a nice
interface with R!  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.
