Emacs is known as “the SelfDocumenting” editor, though, so while the refcard can be useful, one should learn to rely on InfoMode for most of the more complicated features of this editor.' Isn't the self-documenting attribute demostrated by the documentation written into the elisp code and displayed with `C-h m', rather than something to do with info?
