I added this section to my .emacs and it works!

So I next added this section to my .emacs, and I got this error message
'File error: "Cannot open load file", "remember"'.

And now I'm stuck! I don't know why it isn't loading so I tried using 'emacs
--debug-init' at the command line. This is its reply;-
=======================
 require(remember)
  eval-buffer(#<buffer  *load*> nil "~/.emacs" nil t)
  load-with-code-conversion("/home/boztu/.emacs" "~/.emacs" t t)
  load("~/.emacs" t t)
  #[nil " …—
======================

And I'm still stuck! Can anyone help me get it loaded and working please?

Fair enough. I intend to work slowly and get it all working, so that I can
then 'work' with it usefully! :)
