Hi,

Emacsen can be hard to learn sometimes. :-)

It would be great if you could ship an illustrated tutorial (the one
from http://stuff.mit.edu/iap/emacs/ is the best one I've found) in
xemacs's etc/ directory.  It would be even better if you could mention
it on the splash screen and the Help menu.  :-)  Part 1 of the set is
an accelerated illustrated tutorial on Emacs for the impatient.  The
rest of the set cover customization and elisp.  They are excellent,
and it looks like GNU Emacs will probably plans include them too: see
the thread at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel/65537/focus=65629

The files are GFDLed.  I don't know if they are anti-xemacs-biased or not.

What do you think?
