I suggested he use the menus as far as possible (to start with of course) So the question(s): 1. Are there any good intros/tutorials for emacs using menus? 2. The last time (when answering someone similarly intimidated with emacs keyboard shortcuts) and I suggested the menus, I found them lacking: eg basic window commands like C-x 1 and C-x 2, buffer commands like C-x k are not there (as far as I know) in the menus. Any solutions (for a noob)? 1. http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-user/2012-May/084917.html original thread http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-user/2012-May/084889.html
