Unlike most other editors (in particular, unlike the standard Unix editor, vi), Emacs is a complete working envi- ronment. No matter what you do, you can start Emacs in the morning, work all day and all night, and never leave it: you can use it to edit, rename, delete, and organize files; to compile programs; to run shell commands; and so on. Before windowing sys- tems like X and Microsoft Windows became popular, Emacs often served as a com- plete windowing system of its own. All you needed was a terminal, and you could live within Emacs forever. Emacs is also infinitely flexible; you can write your own commands, change the keys that are associated with commands, and (if you are will- ing to take the time) do just about anything you want. Why Read This Book? Because it does so much, Emacs has a reputation for being extremely complicated. We don’t think that’s warranted; we teach you Emacs from the ground up, covering first the basics and then some of the more advanced features. In this book, we have tried to reach as broad an audience as possible: from casual users to professional writers and webauthors to programmers to system administra- tors. No matter what you do with Emacs, you will find it’s easy to learn; after one or two sessions, you’ll know the basics of editing any file. After you learn the basics, you can go on to learn about more advanced topics that provide the real benefits of using Emacs. These include: • Using multiple windows and buffers so you can work on several files at once • Customizing keyboard commands • Tailoring Emacs to fit your work style • Making Emacs your work environment where you can do all your everyday tasks, such as organizing files, compiling programs, and issuing shell commands • Creating macros to streamline repetitive tasks ix This is the Title of the Book, eMatter Edition Copyright © 2008 O’Reilly & Associates, Inc. All rights reserved. • Using Emacs to support programming in many languages (including C, C++, Lisp, Java, and Perl) • Formatting files with various markup languages, such as HTML and XML • Using word abbreviations to avoid spelling out long phrases or to correct com- mon misspellings Of course, many of the topics may not apply to you; some topics may be appropri- ate for a second reading but not for the first. Toward the end of the preface, we’ll sketch several different ways to approach the book, depending on your interests and experience. Which Emacs Is Which? Numerous versions of Emacs are available, offering a wide range of features, but two are in widespread use today: GNU Emacs and XEmacs. (An exhaustive list of Emacs implementations can be found at http://www.finseth.com/~fin/emacs.html.) XEmacs was originally tailored for GUI usage and has a fairly wide user base, but lacks some of the features of GNU Emacs.* This book covers GNU Emacs. Since its appearance, GNU Emacs has become the most popular, powerful, and flexible Emacs, and there’s no reason to believe that this situation will change. If you know GNU Emacs, you will be able to adapt to any other Emacs implementation with no trouble; it’s not so easy to go in the other direction.
