Anywhere in load-path, obviously :-)

Type "C-h v" then enter "load-path<return>" and you'll see your current
load path.

You should probably create a directory to store your custom .el files and
then add that directory to your load-path, in your init file, with something
like:

(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/custom/el/files")

-- HASM
