When you first run elm(you have never ever run it before) it creates a
.elm directory and put its files in there the rc file is
elmrc(i.e. ~/.elm/elmrc). At first it is just a copy of the system
default with lots of comments.

Hope this helps.

According to the output of dpkg --listfiles elm, you shouldn't have one.

I'm sure you can make one, but it's an optional file.  Check /usr/doc/elm
for further info...  Of course, you could make one

I don't use elm but most, if not all, *rc files on my system are .*rc.
Maybe if you look for .elmrc?  I'm talking about in your home directory
ofcourse.
