How can I enable minor mode, always?

[paxxus]

Hi,

I want to always have the highlight-80+ mode enabled. In my .emacs file I
have:

(load "~/Emacs/highlight-80+.el")
(require 'highlight-80+)
(highlight-80+-mode 1)

However, when I start Emacs the highlight-80+ is not active, I have to
manually enable it for each new buffer I open.

My other modes, I want to always have enabled, are enabled as follows (and
it works for those modes):
(show-paren-mode 1)
(setq-default show-trailing-whitespace t)
(setq column-number-mode t)

As you can see each mode is enabled is slightly different ways, very
confusing. Unfortunately none of these methods works for highlight-80+.
