Thanks to all who sent mail and/or posted replies to my query re: .emacs
files & their syntax.  Turns out either of the following are the correct
syntax:  (w/ some slight variations possible in each.)
(setq meta-flag 1)
(set-variable 'meta-flag 't)

I got too many answers to keep track of; so I'll just thank all of you at
once.  (You know who you are.)

Thanks again.
