Micro Emacs

These are the files you need. You can send them from the package contents below.

• EMACS.EXE → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 75.2 KB

No need to put AZMAP.CMD, BDATA.CMD, EMACS.HLP, EMACS.KEY, EMACS.RC, EMACS.TUT, EMACS1.MSS, IBMFN.LST and 12 more: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 393.7 KB on a 1 MB disk.

1. Copy EMACS.EXE to A:\SOFT. They are DOS programs: run them from the DOS icon, or add A:\SOFT to the PATH in C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT to call them by name.

Derived from the package contents and the 200LX conventions. It installs to A: on purpose: C: is a RAM disk and every byte there is memory taken from the system.

1.2  Getting Started


	In order to use EMACS, you must call it up from your system's or
computer's command prompt.    On  UNIX	and  MSDOS  machines,  just type
"emacs" from the main command prompt and follow it with the  <RETURN> or








Basic Concepts				     MicroEMACS Reference Manual


<ENTER> key (we will refer to  this  key  as <NL> for "new-line" for the
remainder  of  this  manual).  On the Macintosh, the Amiga, the ATARI ST
and other icon based operating systems, double click on the uEMACS icon.
Shortly after this, a screen similar to the one below should appear.


1.3  Parts and Pieces


	The screen is divided into a number of	areas  or  windows.   On
some systems the top window contains a function list  of  unshifted  and
shifted function keys.	We will discuss these keys later. Below  them is
an EMACS  mode	line  which,  as we will see, informs you of the present
mode of operation of  the  editor--for example "(WRAP)" if you set EMACS
to wrap at the end  of each line. Under the mode line is the text window
where  text  appears  and is manipulated.  Since each window has its own
mode line, below the text window is it's mode line.   The  last  line of
the screen is the command line where EMACS takes commands and reports on
what it is doing.
