title: Where is my .emacs file on Mac OS X
body: <p>so i am trying to add the google go module to my .emacs file so that when I use emacs to edit my .go file it will have the appropriate indentations and highlight of the words. Ive looked online and it seems that I need to add the following code snippets to my .emacs file (which i cannot find!)</p>
  
  <pre class="lang-lisp prettyprint-override"><code>;; go mode
  (setq load-path (cons "/usr/local/go/misc/emacs" load-path))
  (require 'go-mode-load)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have put go-mode-load.el and go-mode.el in my .emacs.d/ directory I believe i still need to find the .emacs file to add the code listed above I am running OS X if this helps. Can someone help me get this working thank you!</p>
