[Mono-list] Can't get emacs to show syntax highlighting

[Rodrigo Poblanno Balp]

Hi, I'm using Emacs on Linux 8.0 and I'm starting with C#. Mono and mcs work
both fine the problem is emacs doesn't show the language highlighting and
it is kind of a problem programming like that.
I downloaded the CSharp sintaxes for emacs and put the *.el files and the
*.elc (or cel o ecl...) in my home directory created an "elisp" dir; I
edited my .emacs file
and added this:
(add-to-list 'load-path "/home/rodrigo/elisp")
but it seems not to work
What can I do? The problem is all the instructions that the CSharp.zip (the
zip containg all the .el files) are for Windows users and I do not programme
in Windows but in Linux.
Thanx for your help mates.
Ro.
