Or even, since there are tons of introductions to emacs = concepts, why not refer to them instead of writing your own ? Maybe you misunderstood me. I do not want to put Yet Another Intro to Emacs=E2=84=A2 there. I just want to explain (on, say, half a page) what E= macs is and what are its core ideas, and introduce the language of buffers and modes, so that the readers will know what I'm talking about later.
