Synopsis
GNU Emacs is the most popular and widespread of the Emacs family of editors. It is also the most powerful and flexible. Unlike all other text editors, GNU Emacs is a complete working environment -- you can stay within Emacs all day without leaving. Learning GNU Emacs, second edition, describes GNU Emacs Version 19.30, which has many new features, including support for Internet services (email, Usenet news, File Transfer Protocol, and the World Wide Web), Revision Control System (RCS), and X Window integration. This book tells you how to get started with the GNU Emacs editor. It will also "grow" with you: as you become more proficient, it will help you learn how to use Emacs more effectively. It takes you from basic Emacs usage (simple text editing) to moderately complicated customization and programming. The book is aimed at new Emacs users, whether or not they are programmers. Also useful for readers switching from other Emacs implementations to GNU Emacs. Includes a quick-reference card.
