Here it works nicely with this general form of configuring external
features:
1. Put the file to some directory where you want to keep your local
elisp extensions. It can be anywhere but in this example I'll use
the location ~/my-lisp/whitespace.el
2. Add the directory to "load-path" variable. That is, put this line in
your ~/.emacs file:
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/my-lisp")
3. Add autoload definitions to your ~/.emacs file:
(autoload 'whitespace-mode "whitespace"
"Toggle whitespace visualization." t)
(autoload 'whitespace-toggle-options "whitespace"
"Toggle local `whitespace-mode' options." t)
After evaluating the previous elisp expressions (or after restarting
Emacs) you have the new mode ready to use: "M-x whitespace-mode".
This mode is distributed with Emacs 23 so when/if you later upgrade your
Emacs you can just forget about all these.
