And in five years, when some Emacs newbie asks you about all those strange terms, you'll say: "Young \(wo\)?man, forget about the newspeak of opening files in panes, using tabs, cutting and pasting, moving the cursor and pressing Ctrl+F. Instead, embrace the ancient wisdom of visiting files in windows, using buffers, killing and yanking, moving the point and pressing C-s."
