address@hidden Preface
-
- This manual documents the use and simple customization of the Emacs
-editor. Simple Emacs customizations do not require you to be a
-programmer, but if you are not interested in customizing, you can
-ignore the customization hints.
-
- This is primarily a reference manual, but can also be used as a
-primer. If you are new to Emacs, we recommend you start with
-the on-line, learn-by-doing tutorial, before reading the manual. To
-run the tutorial, start Emacs and type @kbd{C-h t}. The tutorial
-describes commands, tells you when to try them, and explains the
-results.
-
- On first reading, just skim chapters 1 and 2, which describe the
-notational conventions of the manual and the general appearance of the
-Emacs display screen. Note which questions are answered in these
-chapters, so you can refer back later. After reading chapter 4, you
-should practice the commands shown there. The next few chapters
-describe fundamental techniques and concepts that are used constantly.
-You need to understand them thoroughly, so experiment with them
-until you are fluent.
-
- Chapters 14 through 19 describe intermediate-level features that are
-useful for many kinds of editing. Chapter 20 and following chapters
-describe optional but useful features; read those chapters when you
-need them.
-
- Read the Trouble chapter if Emacs does not seem to be working
-properly. It explains how to cope with several common problems
-(@pxref{Lossage}), as well as when and how to report Emacs bugs
-(@pxref{Bugs}).
-
- To find the documentation of a particular command, look in the index.
-Keys (character commands) and command names have separate indexes.
-There is also a glossary, with a cross reference for each term.
-
- This manual is available as a printed book and also as an Info file.
-The Info file is for on-line perusal with the Info program, which is
-the principal means of accessing on-line documentation in the GNU
-system. Both the Emacs Info file and an Info reader are included with
-GNU Emacs. The Info file and the printed book contain substantially
-the same text and are generated from the same source files, which are
-also distributed with GNU Emacs.
-
- GNU Emacs is a member of the Emacs editor family. There are many
-Emacs editors, all sharing common principles of organization. For
-information on the underlying philosophy of Emacs and the lessons
-learned from its development, see @cite{Emacs, the Extensible,
-Customizable Self-Documenting Display Editor}, available from
address@hidden://publications.ai.mit.edu/ai-publications/pdf/AIM-519A.pdf}.
-
-This edition of the manual is intended for use with GNU Emacs
-installed on GNU and Unix systems. GNU Emacs can also be used on VMS,
-MS-DOS (also called MS-DOG), Microsoft Windows, and Macintosh systems.
-Those systems use different file name syntax; in addition, VMS and
-MS-DOS do not support all GNU Emacs features. @xref{Microsoft
-Windows}, for information about using Emacs on Windows.
address@hidden OS}, for information about using Emacs on Macintosh. We
-don't try to describe VMS usage in this manual.

address@hidden Distribution
-
-GNU Emacs is @dfn{free software}; this means that everyone is free to
-use it and free to redistribute it on certain conditions. GNU Emacs
-is not in the public domain; it is copyrighted and there are
-restrictions on its distribution, but these restrictions are designed
-to permit everything that a good cooperating citizen would want to do.
-What is not allowed is to try to prevent others from further sharing
-any version of GNU Emacs that they might get from you. The precise
-conditions are found in the GNU General Public License that comes with
-Emacs and also appears in this address@hidden manual is itself
-covered by the GNU Free Documentation License. This license is
-similar in spirit to the General Public License, but is more suitable
-for documentation. @xref{GNU Free Documentation License}.}.

-
-One way to get a copy of GNU Emacs is from someone else who has it.
-You need not ask for our permission to do so, or tell any one else;
-just copy it. If you have access to the Internet, you can get the
-latest distribution version of GNU Emacs by anonymous FTP; see
address@hidden://www.gnu.org/software/emacs} on our website for more
-information.
-
-You may also receive GNU Emacs when you buy a computer. Computer
-manufacturers are free to distribute copies on the same terms that apply to
-everyone else. These terms require them to give you the full sources,
-including whatever changes they may have made, and to permit you to
-redistribute the GNU Emacs received from them under the usual terms of the
-General Public License. In other words, the program must be free for you
-when you get it, not just free for the manufacturer.
-
-You can also order copies of GNU Emacs from the Free Software
-Foundation. This is a convenient and reliable way to get a copy; it is
-also a good way to help fund our work. We also sell hardcopy versions
-of this manual and @cite{An Introduction to Programming in Emacs Lisp},
-by Robert J. Chassell. You can find an order form on our web site at

-The income from distribution fees goes to support the foundation's
-purpose: the development of new free software, and improvements to our
-existing programs including GNU Emacs.
-
-If you find GNU Emacs useful, please @strong{send a donation} to the
-Free Software Foundation to support our work. Donations to the Free
-Software Foundation are tax deductible in the US. If you use GNU Emacs
-at your workplace, please suggest that the company make a donation. If

address@hidden Introduction
-
- You are reading about GNU Emacs, the GNU incarnation of the
-advanced, self-documenting, customizable, extensible editor Emacs.
-(The `G' in `GNU' is not silent.)
-
- We call Emacs advanced because it provides much more than simple
-insertion and deletion. It can control subprocesses, indent programs
-automatically, show two or more files at once, and edit formatted
-text. Emacs editing commands operate in terms of characters, words,
-lines, sentences, paragraphs, and pages, as well as expressions and
-comments in various programming languages.
-
- @dfn{Self-documenting} means that at any time you can type a special
-character, @kbd{Control-h}, to find out what your options are. You can
-also use it to find out what any command does, or to find all the commands
-that pertain to a topic. @xref{Help}.
-
- @dfn{Customizable} means that you can alter Emacs commands' behavior
-in simple ways. For example, if you use a programming language in
-which comments start with @samp{<**} and end with @samp{**>}, you can
-tell the Emacs comment manipulation commands to use those strings
-(@pxref{Comments}). Another sort of customization is rearrangement of
-the command set. For example, you can rebind the basic cursor motion
-commands (up, down, left and right) to any keys on the keyboard that
-you find comfortable. @xref{Customization}.
-
- @dfn{Extensible} means that you can go beyond simple customization
-and write entirely new commands---programs in the Lisp language to be
-run by Emacs's own Lisp interpreter. Emacs is an ``on-line
-extensible'' system, which means that it is divided into many
-functions that call each other, any of which can be redefined in the
-middle of an editing session. Almost any part of Emacs can be
-replaced without making a separate copy of all of Emacs. Most of the
-editing commands of Emacs are written in Lisp; the few exceptions
-could have been written in Lisp but use C instead for efficiency.
-Writing an extension is programming, but non-programmers can use it
-afterwards. @xref{Top, Emacs Lisp Intro, Preface, eintr, An
-Introduction to Programming in Emacs Lisp}, if you want to learn Emacs
-Lisp programming.
-
- When running on a graphical display, Emacs provides its own menus
-and convenient handling of mouse buttons. In addition, Emacs provides
-many of the benefits of a graphical display even on a text-only
-terminal. For instance, it can highlight parts of a file, display and
-edit several files at once, move text between files, and edit files
-while running shell commands.

address@hidden The Option Index is produced only in the on-line version,
address@hidden because the index entries related to command-line options
address@hidden tend to point to the same pages and all begin with a dash.
address@hidden This, and the need to keep the node links consistent, are
address@hidden the reasons for the funky @iftex/@ifnottex dance below.
address@hidden The Option Index is _not_ before Key Index, because that
address@hidden would require changes in the glossary.texi's @node line.
address@hidden It is not after Concept Index for similar reasons.
