Scala, Emacs and Etags

I've been using Emacs exclusively as my Scala IDE for the last few months. The emacs major mode for Scala is pretty good. It comes with the standard Scala distribution under misc/scala-tool-support/emacs. To load this in to your Emacs environment, I put the following two lines in my .emacs file:
(add-to-list 'load-path "/path/to/scala/misc/scala-tool-support/emacs")
(require 'scala-mode-auto)
I have a couple of gripes about formatting issues, and I may look at "fixing" them some time, but they are very small things, and I can work around them.

UPDATE: The Emacs major mode for Scala is now provided in a separate scala-tool-support archive from the downloads page. Also, a special thanks to whoever fixed the gripes about formatting issues I had!
