The basic tutorial is good. It gave me a overview. My editing is mostly about editing C/C++ code. Now can you help me out with the following: * How to jump to matching brace, ifdefs etc? * How can I get help on the things I do, like ":help case" in vim would tell me how to manipulate cases of text? * How can I pull down menus in xemacs without using keyboard? * How can I set up ctags? * How to learn advanced editing features incrementally? Thanks in advance, Rajesh
