-.SH NAME
-emacs \- GNU project Emacs
-.
-.
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B emacs
-[
-.I command-line switches
-] [
-.I files ...\&
-]
-.
-.
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.I GNU Emacs
-is a version of
-.IR Emacs ,
-written by the author of the original (PDP-10)
-.IR Emacs ,
-Richard Stallman.
-.br
-The primary documentation of GNU Emacs is in the GNU Emacs Manual,
-which you can read using Info, either from Emacs or as a standalone
-program.
-Please look there for complete and up-to-date documentation.
-This man page is updated only when someone volunteers to do so; the
-Emacs maintainers' priority goal is to minimize the amount of time
-this man page takes away from other more useful projects.
-.br
-The user functionality of GNU Emacs encompasses
-everything other
-.I Emacs
-editors do, and it is easily extensible since its
-editing commands are written in Lisp.
-.PP
-.I Emacs
-has an extensive interactive help facility,
-but the facility assumes that you know how to manipulate
-.I Emacs
-windows and buffers.
-CTRL-h or F1 enters the Help facility.
-Help Tutorial (CTRL-h t) starts an interactive tutorial which can
-teach beginners the fundamentals of
-.I Emacs
-in a few minutes.
-Help Apropos (CTRL-h a) helps you
-find a command given its functionality, Help Character (CTRL-h c)
-describes a given character's effect, and Help Function (CTRL-h f)
-describes a given Lisp function specified by name.
-.PP
-.IR Emacs 's
-Undo can undo several steps of modification to your buffers, so it is
-easy to recover from editing mistakes.
-.PP
-.IR "GNU Emacs" 's
-many special packages handle mail reading (RMail) and sending (Mail),
-outline editing (Outline), compiling (Compile), running subshells
-within
-.I Emacs
-windows (Shell), running a Lisp read-eval-print loop
-(Lisp-Interaction-Mode), automated psychotherapy (Doctor), and much more.
-.PP
-There is an extensive reference manual, but
-users of other Emacses
-should have little trouble adapting even
-without a copy.
-Users new to
-.I Emacs
-will be able
-to use basic features fairly rapidly by studying the tutorial and
-using the self-documentation features.

-.\" START DELETING HERE IF YOU'RE NOT USING X
-.SS Using Emacs with X
-.I Emacs
-has been tailored to work well with the X window system.
-If you run
-.I Emacs
-from under X windows, it will create its own X window to
-display in.
-You will probably want to start the editor as a background
-process so that you can continue using your original window.
-.PP
-.I Emacs
-can be started with the following X switches:
-.RS
-.TP 8
-.BI \-\-name " name"

-Note that
-.I Emacs
-will only accept fixed width fonts.
-Under the X11 Release 4 font-naming conventions, any font with the
-value "m" or "c" in the eleventh field of the font name is a fixed
-width font.

-.IR width x height
-are generally fixed width, as is the font
-.IR fixed .

-.SH MANUALS
-You can order printed copies of the GNU Emacs Manual from the Free
-Software Foundation, which develops GNU software.
-See the file ORDERS for ordering information.
-.br
-Your local Emacs maintainer might also have copies available.
-As with all software and publications from FSF, everyone is permitted
-to make and distribute copies of the Emacs manual.
-The TeX source to the manual is also included in the Emacs source
-distribution.
-.
-.
-.SH FILES
-/usr/local/share/info \(em files for the Info documentation browser.
-The complete text of the Emacs reference manual is included in a
-convenient tree structured form.
-Also includes the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual, useful to anyone
-wishing to write programs in the Emacs Lisp extension language.
-
-/usr/local/share/emacs/$VERSION/lisp \(em Lisp source files and
-compiled files that define most editing commands.
-Some are preloaded; others are autoloaded from this directory when
-used.
-
-/usr/local/libexec/emacs/$VERSION/$ARCH \(em various programs that are
-used with GNU Emacs.
-
-/usr/local/share/emacs/$VERSION/etc \(em various files of information.
-
-/usr/local/share/emacs/$VERSION/etc/DOC.* \(em contains the documentation
-strings for the Lisp primitives and preloaded Lisp functions
-of GNU Emacs.
-They are stored here to reduce the size of Emacs proper.
-
-/usr/local/share/emacs/$VERSION/etc/SERVICE lists people offering
-various services to assist users of GNU Emacs, including education,
-troubleshooting, porting and customization.
-.
-.
-.SH BUGS
-There is a mailing list, address@hidden, for reporting Emacs
-bugs and fixes.
-But before reporting something as a bug, please try to be sure that
-it really is a bug, not a misunderstanding or a deliberate feature.
-We ask you to read the section ``Reporting Emacs Bugs'' near the
-end of the reference manual (or Info system) for hints on how and
-when to report bugs.
-Also, include the version number of the Emacs you are running in
-\fIevery\fR bug report that you send in.
-
-Do not expect a personal answer to a bug report.
-The purpose of reporting bugs is to get them fixed for everyone
-in the next release, if possible.
-For personal assistance, look in the SERVICE file (see above) for
-a list of people who offer it.
-
-Please do not send anything but bug reports to this mailing list.
-For more information about Emacs mailing lists, see the
-file /usr/local/emacs/etc/MAILINGLISTS.
-Bugs tend actually to be fixed if they can be isolated, so it is
-in your interest to report them in such a way that they can be
-easily reproduced.

-may sometimes be received packaged with distributions of Unix systems,
-but it is never included in the scope of any license covering those

-Such inclusion violates the terms on which distribution is permitted.
-In fact, the primary purpose of the General Public License is to
-prohibit anyone from attaching any other restrictions to
-redistribution of
-.IR Emacs .
-.PP
-Richard Stallman encourages you to improve and extend
-.IR Emacs ,
-and urges that
-you contribute your extensions to the GNU library.
-Eventually GNU (Gnu's Not Unix) will be a complete replacement
-for Unix.
-Everyone will be free to use, copy, study and change the GNU system.
