.uaerc should live directly in your home directory.

Being a dot file, it may be hidden depending on your desktop settings. Just use a terminal based text editor like nano/vim/emacs/whatever

Do you mean .uaerc?  Because you cannot create a file called ".uaerc" Gives an error.  I have default.uaerc in my home dir and I also want it to load this file when it runs, instead it opens up a file requestor on my Desktop.
