That's like enjoying the Far East cuisine by booking a ticket to Hong
Kong and arranging for visiting all available MacDonalds restaurants
during the stay.
I'd recommend to _first_ emerge yourself fully into the Emacs world
(using tutorials and the reference sheets), and when, after
considerable consideration, you still find yourself throwing up
regularly, _then_ you might try the local MadDonalds aka viper-mode
and be reasonably sure that you don't miss out on much that you could
digest.
